"My fiftiest video already. And we have a midget module in our midst! I bought a second hand Blacet MiniWave at the end of last year. I always wondered what the possibilities were with this module. I found the ModCan version somewhat expensive. The module was delivered last Monday. After fixing some problems with it, last night it was working. This evening I started the Doepfer sequencer with a 6 step sequence on row one and out of nothing the first sequence you hear was running out of the MiniWave using the standard bank 14. Row 3 with a 16 step sequence controls the variation of the wave of the MiniWave. Adding a high pitched 8 step sequence on row two for the self-built Modular resulted in a bird-like sound. Adding the Mellotron strings part on the Roland XP-80 was easy. Solo's on the Nord Lead 1 and the Waldorf Q Keyboard to add some variety."

flickr by Synthesizers

"Ion introduced the iDiscovery keyboard for the iPhone at CES 2010.

The iDiscovery iPhone keyboard features pitch and modulation wheels and variety of other controls which interface directly with the keyboard tutor application the board is designed to operate with.

No word on how this may or may not work with other apps - but this could be cool.
Pricing is TBA."

iPhone synth controller. I wonder if it has MIDI. :) Can't wait for the iSlate.

NOT NAMM: Looptastic Demo

YouTube via crunchgear. CrunchGear.com. Shown at CES. Will iSlate synth/music apps be shown at CES, NAMM, or both when they take off? I was thinking about this when going through the booth list.
