The Kilpatrick Audio TORQUE - Multiband Compressor

"Powerful dynamics processor for production and performance.

As modern electronic musicians and producers, we are increasingly working outside the box, combining both computer-based DAWs with new and vintage gear to get the sounds we want.

We are proud to offer TORQUE, featuring great sounding and flexible compression in a small, portable package. For use in the studio or on stage, TORQUE has a fast and intuitive user interface and excellent compression algorithms suited to a wide variety of sources.

Sonicware ELZ_1 @ NAMM 2018

Published on Jan 25, 2018 Bedroom Producers Blog

"Checking out the impressive Sonicware ELZ_1 portable synthesizer at the 2018 NAMM Show."

See this post for full details on the Sonicware ELZ_1.

Funny side note / trivia: It is ELZ_1, and not ELZ-1. Curious if it's the first synth to use an underscore rather than dash in the model number or name.
