Sonic Talk Podcasts

Back from Musik MESSE with a flurry of new releases and videos, we start with the Propellerheads Rack Extensions, then move into a synth-fest with the StudioLogic Sledge polysynth, then finally we marvel at the Zynaptiq Unveil - a tool which allows removal and manipulation of ambience around the original signal - truly a Melodyne moment.

Leap year special - we wont be doing this on Feb 29th again until 2040 - so enjoy! Dave Spiers and Gaz Williams join me to discuss the THX Deep note sound and its origin, the Pulse Controller piezo table drumming device, a Vangelis and Moroder mashup from FlameTopFred, Gaz gives us the headsup on Cubase 6.5 just released and finally we examine the new Stochastik Kit app from Xitive.

Mark Tinley, Gaz Williams and Nick Batt.Fresh back from the show, we debrief and select our highlights from the NAMM show.

We talk of the stuff we know is coming, Moog Minitaur, Casio WX-P1, something from Teenage Engineering, Akai MPC Renaisance and CopperLAN for modular control and more

Mike Leghorn talks about his work synthesizing Holsts The Planets

For the first time in Sonic TALK history, we’ve got five panelists in the same room at the same time, as Rich Hilton is over in the UK on Chic disco business, we persuaded Gaz, Dave and Mark to join us too, making it the first full live panel.
