Peter over at
Create Digital Music
has been tipped off about a new handheld music composition & synthesis device that no-one had bothered to tell
us
about. We'll stop sobbing long enough to tell you that the
MAD Player
offers sampling, synthesis, algorithmic compostition, karaoke, and a
whole bunch of other stuff
in a 170mm box. It
sounds
pretty decent too. We can see quite an uptake for this little gizmo in the lucrative
sweaty man
/
McRorie
demographic. Now, back to Tom in the
studio
, where our regular Godfried coverage continues…
Well, Kevin, drummer from the Nettles (Celtic with a Kick) did get in touch with us (and CDM), but I hadn't got round to reading his email! Thanks, Kevin.
ReplyDeleteWell, I'm a guitarist actually, but I do bang it a fair bit.
ReplyDeleteShop around a bit for a good price on the machine, which varies from $40 to $300 USD for the same device. The capabilities of the MadPlayer are tremendous for the price. It generates copyright-free rhythm tracks on the fly.
Cheers,
Kevin
For $40, this is definately something I'd like to try...
