Big props to Saylor for the awesome Yelp! review…We’ve begun a really cool new project with Saylor Billings called the O-Line Mysteries, a mystery, comedy podcast. Check out Saylor’s review —>

In the fall issue of Make Magazine Brian Schmierer wrote an article about converting a usb game controller into an open source interface for Max/MSP. Make is a focused magazine with tons of awesome DIY projects and resources.

Brian has designed a variety of interfaces and controllers that communicate with vocoders, synths, sequencers, and self built VST plug-ins via Usb, MIDI, or OSC. For Brian and for Sound Arts, this is the tip of the iceberg!

Today, during their mix session, I overheard Lily Taylor mention to Ryan Kleeman that they were looking to add some texture to a track…make it more vintage and vinyl-like. So after a quick hunt, I found a cool free plugin from iZotope, from Boston, MA. Check it out!

KeyToSound, a designer, developer and manufacturer of digital audio technology, musical instruments, and audio signal processors has just released an upgrade to a free instrument plug-in called “Remedy”. Great presets, a bunch of knobs to sculpt, and a classy old school design.
