Last month we made a few prototypes for an iPad docking controller and shared our prototypes with the public. While we never intended to make these controller available for the public, after an overwhelming response to make them available we made a short run of the Block Station available for purchase. Future Music Magazine contacted me to do a short interview on our public prototyping and it appeared in their July 2011 issue. You can view the PDF of the interview here.

MIDI Amsterdam, our dealer in the Netherlands, just sent us this review of our Code controller in Interface Magazine. While my understanding of Dutch isn’t that great, google’s translation of the article’s header is!
“It seems there is more than real instruments midi controllers on the market. Amidst allthe violence there is a plastic box that visually stands out in any case: the lividInstruments Code. Is he as good-as he looks?”

And of course the conclusion…
“Fact is that with this one lividInstruments Code box into your home that well-designed, sturdy and flexible. It is oneof the best controllers I’ve owned had.”
If you can read Dutch or just want to look at “Codewoord controle” you can view the entire article as a pdf here.

“Code’s a beautiful thing, a good tactile experience, with a lot of visual feedback from the LEDs – there’s also enough room on the case to label the controls if you want to.”

After almost a year scratchworx.com finally gave us a review and some awesome pictures of the Ohm64. While this was the first generation Ohm64 (powder coated not anodized faceplate, no countersunk screws, and numbered buttons) the review is good and the pictures are awesome.
“If you want a workhorse, something designed for a single job, such as an Ableton Live or Logic or Traktor controller, there are plenty of other things on the market. If, however, you find yourself and your creative urges heavily influenced by all that surrounds you and get inspiration from the rewards proffered from not only personalising and customising things until they’re uniquely yours, but, admittedly, overcoming the shortcomings of a device and truly learning your equipment, I cannot recommend the Ohm64 highly enough.”
