    *** warning! übergeek blog post! •••

    Having picked up some vintage analog synths lately, and with the full intention of buying more ... I was super stoked to have been shown this new product: MOTU Volta, a forthcoming DAW AU plug-in that sends CV output through any MOTU  (and eventually any DC-coupled) sound card. AAWWWEEESSSOOOMMMEEE!

    Now I can use my lovely old MS20 on stage. Now I can approach any vintage synth hardware as I would any plug-in ... no oscillator drift, calibration, timing issues, re-bouncing or any of the other headaches which prevented me from forming a massive modular habit.

    Told you this was a geek post. One of my main loves for hardware is that it puts you one huge  sonic step above the army of pirates all using the same bloody cracked software.

    The intro video below is short but quite possibly the least interesting studio equipment product video I have ever seen. It's that's dull. But if you sequence in a DAW (and who doesn't?) plus own any CV gear ... take 3 minutes to check it out.

    Anything which helps kill off MIDI synth control is a good thing.


    p.s: As the economy has knocked the legs right out from under my studio - and aside from mucking about with synths for no good reason - I'm playing Xbox a lot recently. A LOT ... Add gamer tag "disuye" if you are looking for L4D team-mates, an easy kill in CoD4/WW/Halo3 ... am a potential GoW2 Horder plus happy to rambling on about where cool shit spawns in Fallout 3. I may blog Fallout sometime soon... the game is that good.

    I only create stereo mixes for a living and for that I have a decent stereo [single stage] DA convertor. But as I rarely record, the average quality AD stage in the MOTU was a good enough balance between I/O options and cost.

    Also: Are you using a MOTU interface? I always figured someone with a studio like yours would go for Apogee or something similar. The CV thing is pretty sweet though, I imagine a lot of TB-303 owners will be getting a kick out of this. =)
