On the menu this week: Hydrasynth Desktop is in! Did I make a mistake by buying the Polybrute back in 2023 instead of the Hydrasynth Deluxe? I've also got the new Arturia Keystep37 mk2\. Is it as good as I'd hoped? There are definitely some hits and some misses. There's also a great interview with Suzanne Ciani you won't what to miss (link below), a realistic estimate of when US customers might see products from Modal Electronics available again, and more.
