West Coast Boys: Dutch Electro Portraits

"Paul Langlade calls it "gear p.rn" or "synth p.rn" because - jammed as they are with sequencers, synthesizers, samplers and various other pieces of equipment - his photographs of the leading lights in the Dutch electro scene are a music nerd's wet dream."

Tiptop Audio Z-DSP Experiments on The Stretta Procedure

"I'm one of the lucky few beta testers of the new Tiptop Audio Z-DSP eurorack module, and boy is it a lot of fun. The Z-DSP is a lot like the Tiptop Audio Z5000, except embiggened. A lot. There are three CV controlled parameters per program. There is a feedback loop that you can tap into on the front panel so you can insert a filter or whatever module you can think of inside a part of the DSP process that is usually closed to tinkering. You can change the personality of the DSP by inserting a different card on the front panel. You can even voltage control the clock. This is serious sound-mangling mayhem."
