No more limitations in terms of sounds and effects; with the Rhizome you choose the style of sound and instruments you want to play. Once downloaded you can mix your plug-in with the mixing desk; create your sequences, patterns and tracks with the multi modes and multi tracks sequencer which is the brain working behind the scene.

What are the differences with the other hybrids already on the market? The Rhizome is not just a keyboard with a Pc or a Pc Rack; it is a real musical instrument which has been designed for the pleasure to play and compose music and is equipped with software running an innovative interface with numerous displays and controllers.

The Rhizome is a real-time instrument: programming, recording, sampling, adding instruments and effects, tuning; all you do is live! There is no interruption when you play on stage or record in a studio. The objective: to free up your inspiration and creativity.

The development of the Rhizome took several years of R&D; 50 engineers and the validation of around 10 user groups. Today the Rhizome is an aggregate of the best technology and know-how.

For the Audio it is RME that does the job; it has been chosen because of its stability and sound quality which is recognized by everybody.

For the display; forget the small monochrome displays; the Rhizome offers 4 large displays (24 bit colors)

For the controllers; the Rhizome has 102 controllers in which you find 16 dynamic pads and 32 endless knobs

You get the Windows XPE which is a version of Windows XP Pro that has been redesigned and compiled especially for Feeltune. It offers a better stability and a total compatibility with VSTs.

For the effects and instruments; some of them have been developed by Ohm Force, well know key player of the market.

A Design and solid ergonomic; a size and weight that allows bringing the Rhizome with you as hand luggage when you travel by plane.

For its embedded system; you get power and reliability: Intel processor and mother board, server AC, silent fans.

Software, proprietary electronic card and box: build, assemblage and control in France.

Connections: The several in/out allow you to connect and use screens, mousse, midi controllers; hard disk and/or additional audio card.

This reminds me, I was playing Smule's Magic Piano on my iPad last night and decided to see what "Duet" mode was. It brought up a globe of the world that rotated to another player visualized by streams of light for each note played. There was a name "Sofia" on the bottom right of the screen. I was able to play along to this person. I have no idea if "Sofia" heard and saw my name while playing as well.

According to the Smule website: "
Play With the World!

Travel around the Smule Globe to find other Piano users. Select "duet mode" and Magic Piano will create warp holes to connect you with other Pianists.

To stay connected to a single individual, just say so, and play back and forth to your heart's content. Or just listen into other player's duets on the globe."

Ohm Force Symptohm:Melohman Performer Edition Free

Free on Ohm Force

"This 'Performer Edition' is a simplified version of our Symptohm:Melohman powersynth, especially made for live use - but being also handy at the studio. The core of the synth, its oscillators and all the filters are there: it's the same audio engine of the 'normal' version. The only difference is that they're all already programmed/fixed for each one of the (up to 1200!) patches from Symptohm's sound library, the result being a simple and straight forward interface."
