Synthesist and sound designer Ian Dixon – in his latest video – introduces his free Web MIDI editor and librarian for the Korg DW-8000, built to make it easier to manage patches, audition sounds, edit parameters in real time and keep a larger library of DW-8000 sounds ready to use.

This browser-based editor lets you enable MIDI, read the programs from the synth, load SysEx banks, remove duplicates, build a large patch library, send sounds to the DW-8000, tweak filters and waveforms, view envelopes visually and save your own libraries without installing anything.

The video, via Waiting For Zyo, demonstrates the capabilities of hj Firmware, an unofficial firmware for the Korg volca drum, that adds performance features and fixes a handful of bugs.

The free alt firmware gives the volca drum new powers, including Elektron-style trig conditions, new editing features, enhanced sequencing options and more.

Features:

• FUNC + knob shows the current parameter value without changing it
• SWING extended to negative values
• FUNC + SELECT cycles SRC only
• ACCENT extended to negative values (for ghost notes)
• SLICE extended — sub-step patterns
• PROBABILITY gains Elektron-style trigger conditions — A-B, first bar, FILL
• MUTE + STEP 7–16 clears motion sequences per knob
• TOUCH FX on STEP 9–16
• MIDI IN velocity finally works properly

Watch the video and share your thoughts in the comments!

The alt firmware is available via Github.

*Note: This firmware is an unofficial project, created independently of KORG.

Ever notice how your voice sound cool in the shower?

A free (pay what you like) plugin promises to bring that reflective, reverberate sound to your Mac or Windows DAW.

Hot Shower Audio’s bathROOMs is a reverb plugin designed around five distinct bathroom environments: Lavender, Porcelain, Cove, Greenhouse, and Baldosa.

The plugin uses a common reverb engine with controls that alter the perceived distance, surface characteristics, slap reflections, balance between discrete reflections and diffuse reverb, and tonal character.

An overview (in Spanish):

Features:

• Five room variations: Lavender, Porcelain, Cove, Greenhouse, and Baldosa
• Position control for changing the perceived distance and associated brightness and width
• Surface control for adjusting the reflective character of the room
• Slap control for parallel-wall reflections with an independent feedback loop
• Wash control for balancing distinct reflections against a more diffuse reverb response
• Temp control for changing the tonal character between brighter and warmer responses
• Two full A/B settings for comparison
• Copy function for transferring settings between A/B slots
• Included presets
• Dark mode interface
• Integrated sidechain ducker

bathROOMs is available now as a pay-what-you-want download, with a minimum price of $0.
