The sound

More than a skin. The sound changes too.

A real-time analog chain runs under every machine: tape saturation and drive, wow and flutter, hiss, vinyl crackle and rumble, a five-band EQ, volume boost, stereo width, slowed + reverb and 8D audio. Fourteen programmes, three memory slots of your own, and one switch that bypasses all of it when you want the file untouched.

The MP95 sound desk: EQ, speed and 8D readouts, eight knobs for drive, wow, flutter, crackle, rumble, width, sub and tone, and buttons for analog, EQ, 8D, slowed and program memory

Hi-Fi

Bit-perfect, and it tells you so.

Decoding and processing in 32-bit float. With the effects bypassed nothing touches the samples, and your USB DAC follows each file’s rate: 44.1 for a CD rip, 96 or 192 for hi-res. A live Output line reads 96 kHz · bit-perfect. Gapless joined on the sample, ReplayGain that never clips, bs2b crossfeed with three presets. All free, on every platform.

Light

The room answers the music.

Tap the FX chip and the backdrop follows the track: spectrum bars, a waveform, an aurora, a stream of light, a pulse or RGB. The digital player has six displays of its own. On the Mac, thirteen rooms with lamps that breathe on the beat.

And Room Light: the iPhone flashlight driven by the bass, a lamp that swells with the kick and never goes dark.
