YouTube via minhternet | January 22, 2011 |

"http://www.wifimidi.com

This is a time lapse (2000x) video of The Missing Link (http://www.wifimidi.com ) being hand built in Portland, Oregon.

The soundtrack was performed/recorded by Minh Tran (http://www.minhternet.com ) wirelessly using an iPod Touch via the Missing Link to simultaneously control a Korg MicroKorg, Yamaha Motif ES8, Roland Juno 60 (with Kenton Pro DCB mkiii) and Korg Triton-Rack."

Also see The Missing Link label below for more posts including some templates I'm in the process of making for use with The Missing Link.

Also it’s cheap if you want to compare it to other softsynths, only $99! So support the small independent company and get it! Below I talk to Randy Jones about Aalto but first here is an example of some of its capabilities using 3 instances of Aalto in a session..." [link]

This is a great piece of software. A demo version is available.
