JBL MSC1 Monitor System Controller with Room Mode Correction
"As the “hub” of your system, the MSC1 controls the monitoring of three stereo input sources such as a computer workstation, mixing console, electronic musical instrument, CD or personal MP3 player. The MSC1's primary speaker “A” outputs include a level control, monitor EQ and RMC Room Mode Correction to tune the monitors to the room. Selecting the “B” outputs assigns the volume control and input routing to a second set of speakers. Subwoofer controls let you add a sub to the “A” speaker system, with a dedicated level control, and a choice of bass management crossover settings. The MSC1 headphone output and independent level control let you send a headphone feed to a performer or monitor using headphones in the control room."
"The MSC1 includes JBL’s acclaimed RMC Room Mode Correction technology that measures your room and tackles low frequency problems caused by room modes and boundary conditions. The MSC1 comes with everything needed to calibrate your system including a Calibration Mic, MSC1 Control Center Software*, and accessory cables. Calibration is simply carried out using the supplied microphone, MSC1 Control Center Software and your computer. Before measuring your room, Control Center meticulously measures the signal path of your audio system to set the stage for an accurate speaker calibration. Control Center Software guides you through every step. Once your system has been measured, re-calibration of your speakers is fast and easy and can be done at any time. After RMC calibration, the MSC1 works as a stand-alone controller and connection to a computer is not required."
"In addition to managing RMC Calibration, the MSC1 Control Center Software provides fine-control of monitor EQ, speaker alignment delay, subwoofer balance, and bass-management crossover settings. Control Center Software is included with the MSC1. Control Center is compatible with XP and Vista 32-bit and 64-bit operating systems. Macintosh software now available."

Nomad Factory Motown Retro Bundle only $20!
AudioMidi.com is currently blowing out the Nomad Factory Motown Retro Bundle for only $20. The bundle consists of emulations of the two equalizers that were used on many of Motown's biggest hits. I can't say how faithful they are to the originals but at $20 it's definitely worth getting.
RETRO MUSIC-TONE
The Retro Music-Tone is a 7-band passive equalizer plug-in emulation of the hardware version used exclusively by Motown engineers.
Like in the original hardware units, we have recreated the proportional Q which means that there is no adjustable Q bandwidth : small boost/cuts have a very broad Q and greater boost/cuts have a narrower one. You just have to adjust the gain of each fixed frequencies (from -8dB to +8dB) according to taste and the resulting tonal color
Features :
Features :
- 7-band equalizer with, Gain and Proportional Q.
- 50 Hz, 130 Hz, 320 Hz, 800 Hz, 2 kHz, 5 kHz and 12.5 kHz.
- Boost / Cut up to 8dB per band
- Phase reverse switch
- Vintage VU Meter
- Full Automation for all parameters PC and Mac OS X
- Easy-to-use vintage interface
RETRO FILM-TONE
Like his brother above, the Retro Film-Tone is a 7-band passive equalizer with fixed frequencies and Proportional Q emulation of the hardware version used exclusively by Motown engineers. As you can see, the overlaping frequencies make it possible to use both plugins together on the same track / bus so that it gives you a total of 14 bands.
Features :
- 7-band equalizer with, Gain and Proportional Q.
- 80 Hz, 200 Hz, 500 Hz, 1.2 kHz, 3.2 kHz, 8 kHz and 16 kHz.

Why You Only Hear Major Label Songs On The Radio
Techdirt has an interesting article on why independent artists are not heard on major radio stations. The article is based on an a post from George Howard on Tunecore's blog.
Here's an excerpt explaining why independent labels don't get the same attention as the Majors:
Getting a song “added” to a station’s playlist to get a certain number of plays per week involves a rather byzantine process that brings in various parties, called independent promoters (“indies”). These “indies” are first paid by the label. It’s important to note that the money the indies receive isn’t necessarily compensation paid directly to them for getting Program Directors to get a song played. Rather, they work more like an intermediary to pass the label’s money to the radio station. These indies, with the money paid to them from the labels, pay the radio station money for various listener give-aways, bumper stickers and so on. To top it off, these very same indies are often also paid a second time by the stations themselves as a consultant to advise the stations on what songs they should play.Because of this, the major labels absolutely dominate radio airplay. Independent labels could try to hire the same indie promoters, but won't get the same attention anyway:
Here’s why: You’ve come to these indies, and they’ve gone to the labels, and they’ve taken your money, and they know that you’re probably not coming back any time soon. On the other hand, the majors are coming every week with money and new artists. Who would you prioritize if you were in the indie/radio station’s shoes?The article goes on to say how the internet, specifically music blogs are becoming a huge alternative to traditional radio:
"If you're wondering exactly why the labels have been trying to shut down popular hip hop blogs recently, look no further than this story. Such blogs have really become "the new radio" for creating hits for the younger generation. But, unlike the old radio, the major labels don't "control" these blogs in the way they control radio"
Also George's article mentions other alternatives and why they're changing the way we listen to music:
"Customers who have been fed a steady diet of music that is not being played because it impacts the market, but rather because it was the highest bidder, eventually lose interest and look for alternatives. Up until recently, there weren’t alternatives, but now with internet radio, satellite radio, subscription services, and your own playlists on your iPod/iPhone, the alternatives abound."
What do you think? Agree, Disagree?

Dave Smith Instruments Tempest
Dave Smith Instruments Tempest is a new analog/digital drum machine/synth hybrid that Dave Smith (known for Sequential Circuits) designed with Roger Linn (Linn Drum, MPC 60).
I like the layout and the features. The fact that you have direct access to many of the parameters via various knobs allows you to modulate the sounds and beat patterns on the fly. The included samples were supplies by Fxpansion and Goldbaby. It doesn't allow you to load your own samples but it was implied that feature will be in a later generation/update of the Tempest. If it can trigger and manipulate external sounds via Midi it would make a great controller.
"The design of Tempest reflects a rethinking of what a drum machine needs to be in the current era. It's not so much a drum machine as a new musical performance instrument for the creation, manipulation, and arrangement of beat-oriented music, with an intuitive and efficient use of human gestures."
FEATURES:
- 16 pressure- and velocity-sensitive backlit drum trigger pads in an 8 x 2 matrix
- 6 analog voices each with 2 analog oscillators and 2 digital oscillators loaded with a large bank of included samples
- Modulation path includes Dave Smith's classic analog lowpass filter with audio-rate modulation, highpass filter, analog VCA with feedback, 5 envelopes, 2 LFOs, and an extraordinary variety of analog modulation routing options
- Doubles as a 6-voice analog synth
- 6 direct voice outputs plus stereo mix outputs, headphones outputs,
- 2 inputs for foot switches or expression pedals
- MIDI in/out
- USB
- 90 panel controls
- Bright 256 x 64 OLED display
- Realtime and step recording
- ROLL button permits creating drum rolls or repeated groove patterns by varying pad pressure as the beat records
- ROLL button doubles as a momemtary "stutter" effect when the pads are assigned to play beats. Sustain button holds the note of tuned parts (like a keyboard's Sustain pedal) or to choke drum sounds or drumbeats when the pad is released
- 2 pressure- and position-sensitive Note FX slide controllers permit real-time recording of note or beat-wide sound parameter changes into the drumbeat as you play
- A variety of unique effects:
- Stereo analog compressor and distortion circuits affect the stereo output mix
- Beat-synced delay is achieved by generating additional delayed note events within the sequencer
- A beat-synced "stutter" effect is created entirely within the sequencer by looping short portions of the drumbeat on demand
- Adjustable swing timing with realtime control
Here's a video guide of the Tempest featuring Roger Linn.

Magma Announces Three-Slot Expansion Chassis for Thunderbolt™ Technology
Magma recently announced the ExpressBox 3T which is an expansion chassis that uses the Thunderbolt connector on the new and upcoming Apple computers. This will make it possible to run your Protools, UAD, video capture cards etc. on computers that lack PCIe slots such as the iMac and Macbooks. It seems there might be an option to order it as PCI-X, PCIe or both. Should be available by the end of the year and comes with a carry case. I plan on setting up a mobile rig with a Macbook Pro and the ExpressBox 3T will make it much easier to do.
The price is rumoured to be under $1000.
"ExpressBox 3T provides an 'outside-the-box' solution for using PCIe® cards with Thunderbolt-equipped computers. High-performance flows are possible by connecting a Thunderbolt equipped computer to a Magma ExpressBox 3T containing PCIe cards such as video capture, media transcoding, audio processing, and fast data storage. And because Thunderbolt is also based on DisplayPort technology, you can daisy chain a high-resolution display with your Magma ExpressBox 3T."
"ExpressBox 3T is a sleek anodized silver chassis with three PCIe 2.0 slots, a cooling fan, a 220W internal power supply, and travel bag for easy transportation. ExpressBox 3T and up to six Thunderbolt devices can be daisy-chained including Thunderbolt and DisplayPort displays. Magma is actively working with development partners such as Apple, Avid, AJA, Red, ATTO, Fusion-io and Promise Technology to validate application performance with ExpressBox 3T in broadcast video and pro audio environments."
