The Octatrack DPS-1 is an 8 track dynamic performance sampler. The Octatrack is ideal for radical audio processing and performance oriented sampling. Every track features real-time pitch scaling & time stretch and the next generation Elektron step sequencer has been designed with maximum usability and efficiency in mind.
Every track can be up to 64 steps of length and all the tracks of a pattern can have both unique length and time signature settings. A master length parameter sets the number of measures the pattern will play before all tracks are restarted from the beginning. If the master length is set to infinity, the tracks will play and loop within themselves infinitely. This amount of pattern customization makes it easy to create intricate and continuously evolving poly rhythms.

- Compatible with Akai SynthStation25
- Uses Modwheel to modulate Gender/Vibrato
- Modulate Gender/Vibrato with finger movement up/down
- Hold parameter - holds Voxel at defined moment
- Edit voxel - hear the sound while editing the hold position
- Volume increased for about 12dB
- Many bugs fixed

Millennia Music launches AD-596 eight channel analog to digital convertor module based on the award-winning AD-R96 design. It will work in any API-compatible rack.
One of the unique features of the AD-596 is Millennia's proprietary Tick-Tock-Lock for outstanding performance with an external clock. The AD-596's performance is indistinguishable between internal and external clock. Most converters suffer from degraded performance when slaved.
Analog inputs and Digital AES outputs are handled by DB25 connectors that conform to the Tascam wiring standard.
Shipping will be in November 2010. The MSRP is $1,500.
