  • Some good guests

    There’s some excellent guests on here with some fascinating audio industry history but the show often gets very slow, bogged down and laboured.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 42 : Music Tech Pioneers VII : Wolfgang Kundrus : Steinberg, Studio One and Beyond !
Q: What were the guiding design principles behind Studio One's UX?
The core principles were single-window layout, quick keyboard shortcuts, drag-and-drop workflows, and placing plugins in a way that minimizes cognitive load, enabling musicians to focus on creating rather than navigating the interface.
Episode 38 : Music Tech Pioneers VI : Roger Linn – LinnDrum to LinnStrument and Beyond !
Q: What were the main challenges with Linn 9000, and how did that influence future products?
Linn explains that the 9000's hardware and software were not aligned, leading to reliability issues that contributed to the company's downturn; the experience shaped later decisions, including outsourcing hardware design and focusing on more reliable, production-ready systems like the MPC line with Akai.
Episode 38 : Music Tech Pioneers VI : Roger Linn – LinnDrum to LinnStrument and Beyond !
Q: What was the process behind the LM-1's sample recording session with Art?
Art played drums in a controlled environment; Linn recorded the sounds with a close microphone setup, and the resulting samples became the core timbres of the LM-1, illustrating the 'magic' of hearing real drums triggered by buttons.
Episode 38 : Music Tech Pioneers VI : Roger Linn – LinnDrum to LinnStrument and Beyond !
Q: Can you give us an overview of your personal history with music, computers and your journey to Linn Electronics?
Roger Linn describes growing up with strong music and tech influences, learning guitar, circuit bending, and eventually designing a programmable drum machine that led to the LM-1 and the Linn Drum. He explains how his dual passions merged into founding Linn Electronics and later Roger Linn Design, and how the MPC-era collaboration with Akai evolved from those roots.
