UVI Emulation One, the sequel prequel to the now famous Emulation II, presents you with the unbridled sonic imprint of this "nearly affordable and compact" sampler from 1981.

Used by greats such as Vangelis, Herbie Hancock, David Bowie, Depeche Mode, Genesis, Kitaro, Jean-Michel Jarre, Stevie Wonder, Philip Glass, John Carpenter and more, this 8-bit classic will surely inspire you on new voyages of sound as you rediscover the magic character of this 80′s gem.

Totally different but complementary sounds to its successor, Emulation One will add a piece of history to your musical arsenal. Paint the future with the magic of the past!

OVERVIEW

UVI prides itself in providing the highest quality instruments. Meticulous process is designed from the start to ensure the original character of these machines is preserved faithfully. Deep multi-sampling utilizing the very best analog and digital equipment is combined with industry-leading modeling tools to give you a hybrid instrument that's both genuine to the original and thoroughly customizable.

Voxkit! for iOS Now Available

video posted here.

"Voxkit is a MIDI drum controller with a twist. In addition to touch pads on the screen, you can trigger notes with sound. Clap your hands, tap a pencil on a desk, or use your voice -- Voxkit detects the tone of the sound, to trigger a sample from the app, or a MIDI note.

You can customize the sounds that Voxkit makes -- add WAV format samples through iTunes File Sharing, to make the drum kit of your dreams.

Record your playing with the app, and then export the results as a WAV file (with Audio Copy, iTunes File Sharing, or by email). MIDI events are recorded too, with the same sort of export options.

With Audio Paste, you can import a song that you're working on with another app, and then add a track of live drumming.

By listening to external sounds, rather than just the touch on a screen, Voxkit can capture the subtle velocity and rhythm variations of real drumming.

There are hundreds of apps that will let you program drums on a grid -- and you wind up with something that sounds stale and mechanical. Break free with Voxkit!"
