SONIC TALK 149 - LIVE
A bumper week for the live listener, no doubt due to the loss of data from last week - live is the only guarantee that you'll get to hear the show! No, really - great to see so many people in the chat room, if it carries on this way we'll have to go up a streaming tier - woohoo!

We have a special guest this week - Angus Hewlett CEO of FXPansion talking about the DCAM Synthsquad instruments (Cypher, Amber and Strobe), Mark Tinley too - sound artist and big thinker and Rich Hilton - grammy winning engineer and producer comes in from across the pond.

We talk to Angus about the Synthsquad instruments and some of the behind the scenes development, then its a quick mention of the finally released Eigenharp (we have video!), Novation Launchpad astounds us all with its great price and features, then its on to the Moldover creative CD packaging and other hardware related marketing capers. We don't talk about Esquivel, but we do discuss ribbon mics on the news that Audio Technica have released a couple.
