Recently we brought you the sad news of a foreclosure of Open Labs. We immediately tried to contact every Open Labs contact we had. After a few days we got assurance that we would soon recieve more information on the details of the foreclosure. Sadly we never did recieve that kind of information. But, … checking the Open Labs website this morning gave us surprisingly the news we wanted. And we are glad to inform you it is good news!
To be honest this should have been done many moons ago. Meaning, … changing the way we look. The Gearjunkies layout! We knew long time ago that Gearjunkies could use a freshen up. But there is a reason why this took so long. When we started the website was simple, small and easy to work with. But as the years went by and the website grew and grew, we added feature by feature. Many of them originally programmed by our in-house programmer. In other words … we created a beast! Changing a layout wasn’t as easy as it sounds. Gearjunkies isn’t like a simple Wordpress site where you click and change your theme. Hell no! It took lots and lots of work to create a new layout for Gearjunkies. We called it Gearjunkies 2.0!

You can assign the pads to any MIDI function, from triggering effects to browsing your itunes library!

Axon is a strange creature, and Audio Damage won’t tell you otherwise. Their goal was to come up with a new style of percussion sequencer/synth that wasn’t linear and x0xy, and they succeeded beyond the wildest expectations. The Neuron Sequencer in Axon is a fundamentally different way of thinking about rhythmic sequencing, and results in new patterns and styles that will bring your IDM, dance, and ambient tracks to another place.
