OXI Instruments walks us through the fundamentals of MIDI connectivity using their OXI ONE MKII performance sequencer. This tutorial focuses on the practicalities of channel assignment, daisy-chaining via MIDI THRU, and syncing drum machines, giving an accessible yet detailed look at how the OXI ONE serves as the control center in hybrid setups. We follow the workflow and architecture of multi-instrument sequencing, from setting up a single synth to managing larger rigs with the OXI Split, all with a clear focus on efficient routing and performance-centric design.

Jorb Goes Deep: Tempera Is a Granular Street Weapon

SPARKY

Beetle Crab’s Tempera isn’t your average cloud machine—it’s a full-on rave bunker in a box, and Jorb brings all the chaos you want. Forget the ‘ambient only’ stereotype: this beast spits out orchestral pads, glitchy rhythms, and live-processed weirdness, all with a grid that lights up like a synth Christmas. If you love gear that can morph from controller to groovebox to FX monster, you’ll want to see how Tempera bends the rules. Jorb’s take is as sharp as ever: honest, hands-on, and never dull. Strap in.
