You guys will just have to wait for info about the Moog. My lips have been sealed. Also I don’t work there and I’m not a rep. Just in the Loop.

Clavia left-handed keyboards were fake, right?

I had someone e-mail me yesterday to ask if the Melodyne Direct Note Access video was an April Fool or not.

What was it Arthur C. Clarke said about advanced technology being indistinguishable from magic…

Somebody who posts at a forum I moderate claimed that the Moog Guitar was in fact real and that he had seen a demo of it. The person doesn’t have many posts so I don’t know if they sent out reps to try and seed the idea so people would believe it or if its real or not. I assume just about anything is fake if its released April 1st.

The thing I love most is that the the Moogerfooger MF-433 has no knobs or lights but multiple inputs and outputs! Particularly handy for us multi-instrumentalists.

Reason Accordians Demo Song “Outlandish Polka”: A traditional tune that showcases the minutely sampled playing noises that gives the Reason Accordions their character. This tune uses the Musettematic Aurora and if you listen carefully you can hear the rattling of valves, the hissing of the bellows and the muffled yelps of discomfort as the player’s beard gets caught in the bellows. (from the announcement, in case it gets pulled now its the 2nd)…

I love it that the video on Reason Accordions uses the soundtrack from their previous Reason Pianos promo video, but with the word “Accordions” substituted instead of “Pianos” – classic!
