Roundup 20 June | New ALM, Acid Rain Ripsaw and more
We’ll keep the intro short and sweet this week, as we realise you may prefer to be outdoors enjoying the sunshine instead of indoors thinking about synthesisers! Read on for the details on new arrivals from ALM, Acid Rain, 4ms and Ult-Sound, our in-depth buyer’s guide to polysynths, and the cool new features in the Torso S-4 OS 2.0 update.
You guys have been snapping up the Forge-TME Vhikk X and Intellijel Multigrain faster than we can restock them, but more of both are on the way, so you shouldn’t have too long to wait if they’re on your wishlist. And just a reminder that our summer sale/bundle deals on Bitwig and Torso T-1 are still on. If you’re looking for a killer DAW and audio interface or a unique hardware sequencer, there’s never been a better time to buy.
Until next time,
Jason, Aleks, Kyle, Luke, Molly, Rob & Tom
