"IK Multimedia is proud to announce five new accessories in its popular iKlip™ mounting solution line up: iKlip 2 for iPad and iPad mini, iKlip Stand for iPad and iPad mini and iKlip Studio now for iPad mini.

iKlip 2 - Available for iPad and iPad mini

The sequel to the original iKlip, the most popular iPad microphone stand mounting accessory, the new iKlip 2 provides a safe and sturdy method for attaching all types of iPad (from iPad 2nd generation and later) to a microphone stand. It features a new ball-joint design that can be adjusted vertically and horizontally to find just the right viewing angle, and can be quickly rotated between portrait and landscape mode without using tools. Plus the new iKlip 2 supports stands or poles with larger diameters of up to 1.2" and has a new streamlined mounting system that can be up and running in seconds

iKlip Stand - Available for iPad and iPad mini

This new desktop stand mounts the iPad above the desktop so users can position any type of equipment (like music keyboards, mixers, DJ gear etc...) under it for quick access and viewing while playing. It provides a more efficient use of desktop space and a more comfortable ergonomic setup.

iKlip Studio - for iPad mini

The sister version to the very popular iKlip Studio for iPad, iKlip Studio for iPad mini, is a tabletop stand designed for use on flat surfaces with apps that require energetic tapping and beat making. It securely holds an iPad mini but also other 7" tablet in place with non-slip rubber grip feet, and features adjustable viewing/playing angles from near-vertical for reading or viewing score and tab, to near horizontal for sequencing, energetically tapping out rhythms, or intense gaming."

"SuperMetronome Groovebox Pro works like a small Drum Machine with tracks (here, 3) and patterns. You will be able to set the instruments for these tracks (Tick, Click, HH, Kick, Snare, Ride, Tom, Lock, Conga, Stick, Tambourine, Clap, Cowbell, Maracas). You can create your own patterns and save them. 2 accent levels are available. I really love this Metronome for its originality and its sound. A Killer Metronome!"

Note finding this one on iTunes yet.

MATRIXSYNTH NAMM 2013: Pittsburgh Modular at the Noisebug Booth

Uploaded on Jan 29, 2013 matrixsynth·249 videos

My first stop at NAMM was the Noisebug booth starting with Pittsburgh Modular. As I previously posted I was intrigued by their new offerings which presented eurorack modular systems as self contained stand alone synthesizers rather than individual modules.  In my opinion, this format helps break one of the psychological barriers behind getting into modulars.  Rather than starting with an empty case and contemplating what modules to fill it with, you can essentially by a desktop synth, get your hands wet to see if you are comfortable with modulars and then expand from there.  Richard goes into this perspective, why he decided to create these systems and what each is geared for.  Unfortunately they were not patched up for an audio demo at the time.  You'll find details on each in my previous post and of course the Pittsburgh Modular website.  At the booth, pictured below, are the various configurations of the Cell 48, the Cell 90, the Pittsburgh Modular Foundation, and the Foundation with Expander.  Click each for the super size shot.

MATRIXSYNTH NAMM 2013 Posts

Now that the NAMM storm is subsiding, my coverage will be going up over the next few days.  I have a ton of uploading to do.  Note this is just an informational post to let you know how I cover NAMM; no product insights or reflections, they will come with the individual posts, so you can skip this one if you want.  That said, my posts will have MATRIXSYNTH NAMM 2013: in the title so you can differentiate them from the others.  Each post will focus on a specific manufacturer and/or booth, one post per manufacturer/booth.  At the end of all the posts I'll upload all of the images to Flickr to create one massive NAMM gallery there.  The images will be higher quality on Flickr as Blogger appears to limit the size of uploaded pics, but don't worry, the Blogger pics are still plenty big.  Posts will go up in the order each booth was visited. Note the order is not preferential in any way, nor are any videos.  The order is just what I visited while walking around with appointments in mind and I held back from taking any standard presentation videos to save time as I knew they would be covered by others and featured on the site.

To give you a little background on how I cover NAMM, as you know by now, I pretty much post everything that comes in.  This is good for content creators who want to promote their sites, it is good for you in that you get to see more rather than just my coverage,  and it's good for me because it saves me time and allows me to focus on other things while at NAMM, which in turn is good for you because it allows me to cover things that might have been missed otherwise.  I do have a few things I haven't seen elsewhere yet.  Not new gear, just different perspectives, demos and tons of pics.

Feel free to post my pics, video and coverage elsewhere, just mention where it's from like I do for others in every post I put up.  Other site owners are welcome to post my pics, videos and any quotes.

Side note: NAMM broke the record number of posts for a single day on the site this last Saturday with a whopping 115 posts i a single day.  I hope the coverage wasn't too overwhelming, but honestly, that pretty much sums up the NAMM experience.  The repeat presentations should also give you a little insight that most visitors at NAMM miss - the role of the presenter giving the same presentation over and over again.  Visitors typically only have time to see them once, and for them it's always the first and only time.  Not so for presenters.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy the posts!
