"Martinic" is one of the leading companies in the business of virtual instrument and FX plug-ins, also known as VSTs. Everybody who's making music on a computer will be using either virtual effects or virtual instruments to some extent, but not many know how they are actually made.

"Martinic" CEO Martin Broerse tells us about his company, how they work both under licence for big brand names (which we all know and love) and under their own brand name, how it's achieved that vintage Synthesizers from the 1980s or even analogue combo Organs from the 1960s gain a second life as a virtual instrument plug-in, what the challenges are in virtual modelling such instruments and why Martin would never give away one specific piece of hardware (!) from his own collection of instruments.

In a nutshell: This is a super, SUPER interesting episode for everyone who's interested in digital music and production technology! ...and it contains a lot of exclusive music by UAP (myself) which (by the time of release of this episode) isn't available anywhere else except on this very podcast episode.
