NAMM: Dave Smith and Roger Linn Create a Tempest

Boomchik arrives in a Tempest (click and scroll to see how it has evolved over time).

"Analog Drum Machine a First for Legendary Designers

January 13, 2011—Dave Smith Instruments today introduced Tempest, a new analog drum machine, at the 2011 NAMM Show. Tempest is a collaboration between Smith and longtime friend and fellow instrument designer Roger Linn. Though they've consulted with each other on past projects, Tempest marks the first time a product will carry both the Dave Smith Instruments and Roger Linn Design logos. 'If you're going to make a drum machine, who better to have in your corner than Roger Linn?' said Smith, referring to Linn's legacy as inventor of the digital drum machine.

Though Smith is also responsible for some fine drum machines—most notably Sequential's DrumTraks and Studio 440—Tempest is his first to utilize analog synthesis to generate the sounds. "We've designed a very flexible new synth voice for Tempest," said Smith. Linn added, "The design of Tempest reflects a rethinking of what a drum machine needs to be in the current era. It's not so much a drum machine as a new musical performance instrument for the creation, manipulation, and arrangement of beat-oriented music, with an intuitive and efficient use of human gestures."

Tempest's 16 velocity- and pressure-sensitive pads are arranged in an 8 x 2 array to facilitate both real-time and step entry of beats. Two pressure- and position-sensitive Note FX slide controllers provide a unique new method of performance and control.

"We're very excited about Tempest," said Smith. "It's an instrument with a lot of personality and it's great fun to play. It has been a long time since there has been anything new in the drum machine world."

Tempest is expected to be available by June 2011 with a projected MAP of $1,999.00.

NAMM: iConnectivity Unveils iConnectMIDI

Winter NAMM 2011: iConnectivity Unveils iConnectMIDI, a sophisticated MIDI Interface that integrates computers and MIDI devices like keyboards, drum pads, and synthesizers with the iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch products.
Calgary, Alberta, Canada - January 13, 2011- iConnectivity, a leading innovator of modern MIDI interfaces, introduces the first professional grade, high-speed MIDI interface designed specifically to have plug and play capability between any MIDI controller type device while connected to iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch iOS devices using CoreMIDI.

'We believe the success of the control surface in the iPad and iPod will create a new generation of music makers. We wanted to be the first to open the door to the other wise closed system to get your music out of the iPad. Both beginners and professionals will be at ease with the complete plug and play strategy and the negligible latency.” says iConnectivity CEO Michael Loh. Further, Mr. Loh states, “In opening up the platforms of MIDI and iPads and computers though one device, we want to engage developers to think even more broadly about what their applications can do in the future, the exponentially growing number of music apps is exciting.
