We are doing an Ohm64 workshop and presentation from 6pm to 7pm at the Seattle Art Museum on Thursday, Sept 24 as part of the Decibel festival. We’re SUPER happy to be a part of this event. The Decibel festival has grown from a grass-roots effort of volunteers and music lovers into one of the best annual electronic music festivals. For more info, visit the Decibel website.
Our presentation is at the Simons Board Room at the Seattle Art Museum, and is FREE.

UK based Future Music Magazine has just published a review of the Ohm64. Future Music is available worldwide and if you don’t read it you should, it is a great magazine for anyone interested in electronic music technology. We were particularly excited to be in the ‘How to Fix Your Gear’ issue, we love wires, multi meters, and people working on their own gear. We are also happy about the 4 and 1/2 stars, and working hard at that last star You can read the full review online here on Music Radar or in a PDF of the entire article here.

I have the pleasure of giving an Ohm64 clinic at one of the coolest music gear shops on the planet, Robotspeak. Start your Saturday evening right by learning about our controller. The lower haight’s array of bars and restaurants can take care of the rest of the evening!

Saturday September 19th, 6:00pm
Robotspeak Store, 589 1/2 Haight St, San Francisco, CA 94117

From their website:
Peter Nyboer of Livid Instruments will be hosting a free clinic on what we think is the most beautifully crafted MIDI control surface you can buy, the new OHM 64.
The Ohm64 is a highly flexible, high-quality MIDI controller, with a lot of possibilities. Eight sliders, one crossfader, sixteen knobs, a 64-button grid, plus an additional 15 buttons all adds up to a massive amount of control.
However, “possibilities” can be a daunting word when sitting down to make music. Peter Nyboer, software developer and partner in Livid Instruments, will be providing an overview of the features and some ways to work with the Ohm64 to help make sense of it all. He’ll show some examples in Ableton Live, Max/MSP/Jitter, and Livid’s own VJ software CellDNA (which comes free with the Ohm64). He’ll also dive into the open-source OhmSound synth that he’s been working on that serves as a great example of some of the things you can do when making your own instruments for the Ohm64.
AND ITS FREE! no RSVP required, so come on down.
