Episode 35, speaking to Dave Spiers of GForce Software who specialise in modelling vintage synths as virtual instruments - bringing classic synths such as the OSCar, MiniMoog, Mellotron and ARP Odyssey to life, while faithfully re-imagining their design. He was behind the PhatBoy, a MIDI controller which completely changed the landscape of controllers for both home and pro studios in the mid-90s - bringing 14 knobs for tweaking parameters on your favourite synth and sound modules. As well as making award-winning software instruments, he recently produced a feature length documentary profiling eight companies with interviews and commentary from; I Monster, Michelle Moog-Koussa, Alan R Pearlman, Alessandro Cortini, Rick Smith, Karl Hyde and more. http://www.davespiers.com/ https://www.gforcesoftware.com/ Support the podcast: www.paypal.me/midierror www.ko-fi.com/midi_error www.gofundme.com/f/midierrormeets Show Notes: B&O Radiogram https://i.pinimg.com/originals/b0/52/7c/b0527ce347654b7133d979ae899bd832.jpg Kenny Everet https://kennyeverett.org/ Broken Record Podcast With Ben Folds https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ben-folds/id1311004083?i=1000504703699 D:Ream https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D_Ream EMU Proformance https://www.polynominal.com/site/studio/gear/sold/emuproformance/emu_proformance.html Korg M1 http://www.vintagesynth.com/korg/m1.php DNA Feat.
