NAMM SHOW 2017: Te contamos lo más relevante de este espectacular evento

NAMM SHOW 2017: We tell you the most relevant from this spectacular event

Gustavo

As the slogan goes, and anyone who has seen it firsthand can confirm, music starts here, at the NAMM Show. This magnificent event, held every year in Anaheim, California, United States, is considered the most important trade show in the world for musical products, technology, and professional audio. At this spectacular event, which brings together manufacturers and developers from all over the world, as well as renowned artists and engineers, the latest news and technological advances in audio solutions, musical instruments, and countless related products are presented. NAMM Show 2017, held between January 19 and 22 this year, has just ended, and in this mini report, we want to summarize the most important news presented at this Winter NAMM 2017. Don't get left behind and dive into this informative summary with the most relevant highlights from NAMM 2017! Roland, the prestigious Japanese manufacturer of musical instruments and sound equipment, always generates high expectations at events like this. And on this occasion, it once again lived up to them, introducing three new USB audio interface models. This new line of devices, which brings a breath of fresh air to this crowded product sector, consists of three USB audio interfaces called Roland Rubix22, Rubix24 and Rubix44. All three systems offer excellent sound, robust build quality, a compact size, an affordable price, and essential features such as first-class microphone preamps, high-impedance instrument inputs, MIDI input and output ports, easy-to-read LED indicators, silent operation, low-latency USB drivers, a sampling resolution of up to 192 kHz, and the DAW Ableton Live Lite. One of the main differences between the three models is the number of inputs and outputs: Rubix22 is a 2/2 I/O interface, Rubix24 is 2/4 I/O, and Rubix44 is 4/4 I/O. The news that Universal Audio has just updated its smallest audio interface was also noteworthy. The new Apollo Twin MKII comes with Thunderbolt compatibility for both Mac and PC, so Apollo Twin users will no longer be tied to a single platform, as was the case until now. In addition, this new member of the prestigious Apollo series updates its AD/DA converters, offering greater dynamic range and lower harmonic distortion. Furthermore, and this is perhaps the most important part, the new Apollo Twin MK II includes 4 DSP Shark, doubling the processing power of the Apollo Twin Duo. Continuing with the news, regarding audio interfaces, another important announcement was the launch of the new Antelope Orion 32 HD. Antelope, the manufacturer of the interfaces of the moment—thanks to a hard-earned reputation—has just introduced this new system which, among other great advantages, offers new possibilities for Pro Tools users. Antelope Orion 32 HD includes, in addition to its prestigious clock based on AFC (Acoustically Focused Clocking) technology, whose precision is the foundation of this manufacturer's success, a series of extremely high-quality features, such as its 64 audio channels, D-Sub, ADAT, SPDIF, and MADI connections, 24-bit/192 kHz conversion capabilities, WordClock/Loopsync connections for precise synchronization, and FPGA real-time effects processing technology. As if all this were not enough, Antelope Orion 32 HD not only offers compatibility with most DAWs on the market—via USB 3 connection for Windows/Mac—but also includes HDX ports for full integration with Pro Tools HDX and HD Native systems. This is undoubtedly great news for the large community of users of this AVID platform. RME also made its debut presenting its new audio interface RME UFX II, a version with the same quality as the UFX+ but with a simplified connection layout that, while reducing the number of connections by eliminating the MADI, Thunderbolt, Firewire, and USB 3 ports, offers a high-quality audio interface at a significantly lower price.   The RME Fireface UFX II interface comes with a USB 2 port and still retains the ADAT/SPDIF, AES/EBU, MIDI IN/OUT, Word Clock IN/OUT ports, as well as its 8 output channels and 12 input channels, with microphone preamps on 4 of them. This new audio interface from RME has a clear focus on project studios that do not need as many channels but are still looking for high-quality results. Leaving the audio interface section, we move into the DJ universe, which, unsurprisingly, is also full of fantastic new products. One of these new releases, and also one of the most anticipated after so many rumors, is the new generation of MPC from Akai. This renowned manufacturer is clearly betting on returning to standalone production machines, something many users had been calling for for a long time. Akai MPC X and Akai MPC Live are new systems for sampling, recording audio, and managing sounds and arrangements autonomously, meaning they can do absolutely everything natively through their own AKAI MPC 2.0 software platform without the need to connect to a computer. Both models act as a control surface for the MPC 2.0 software and also feature 16 velocity-sensitive pads, RCA inputs for turntables, 16 GB of storage—with over 10 GB of included sound content—a 2.5" SATA drive connector (SSD or HDD), and 2 USB-A 3.0 ports for USB storage devices or MIDI controllers. As for the Akai MPC Live, it features a 7-inch color touchscreen, 4 Q-Link potentiometers, a built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery, 2 GB of RAM, 2 MIDI In/Out ports, and an SD card slot. For its part, Akai MPC X integrates a 10.1-inch touchscreen and comes with 2 MIDI input ports and 4 output ports, 16 touch-sensitive Q-Link controls with OLED screens, and 8 configurable CV/Gate outputs for the analog control of modular equipment, such as classic synthesizers. Continuing with the news within the DJ product family, Denon has introduced three very interesting products. One of them is the Denon SC 5000, a DJ player with a 7-inch touchscreen control that offers, among many other features, simultaneous playback of two audio tracks with independent control at 24-bit/96 kHz, 8 multifunction pads, an 8-inch jogwheel with a customizable central screen, 3 USB ports and an SD slot for loading audio files, and LAN connection for interconnecting up to 4 units. Another of these products is the 4-channel mixer, Denon X1800, which in the opinion of many is Denon's bid to compete directly with the illustrious Pioneer DJM-900NXS2. This new mixer offers phono/line connections per channel, 2 USB ports for using the mixer with two computers, an OLED screen for function control, 3-band equalization and independent filters per channel, Sweep FX effects, two microphone connections, 4 Link ports for interconnecting with other units, and MIDI output.   Closing this exquisite range of Denon DJ products is the turntable Denon LV12. The first thing that stands out about this product is that it has been designed and built from scratch by Denon. The turntable features an S-shaped arm made entirely of metal, offers adjustable pitch at 8, 16, and 50%, operates at 33 and 45 RPM speeds, and features RGB lighting around the platter with color and brightness control. Diving a little deeper into the news for DJs, we find Bitwig Studio 2, the evolution of what was one of the first music production programs to combine linear and non-linear sequencing on Windows, MacOS, and Linux, bringing together cutting-edge technologies such as plugin locking protection and a highly flexible and agile user interface. This is the first major update this interesting and powerful music production software has ever received. The current version of Bitwig Studio continues to offer one of the most flexible and powerful modulation systems in the industry, which has been completely redesigned to include 24 new modulators that provide almost endless possibilities. Bitwig Studio 2 incorporates a large number of tools, including: Spectrum Analyzer, Phaser, Pitch Shifter, Treemonster—a ring modulator—Note Harmonizer, among others. To wrap up this family of DJ products, we highlight Toraiz As-1, the new Pioneer monophonic analog synthesizer—developed in collaboration with Dave Smith Instruments—focused on both studio production and live performance. This innovative synthesizer—the second musical instrument in the Toraiz series—is set to provide new creative possibilities for both studio work and live productions. The synthesizer integrates a fully programmable analog synthesis engine, based on the analog circuits of the Dave Smith Instruments Prophet-6 synthesizer. With this new instrument, Pioneer wants to offer a very easy-to-use synthesizer but with a number of presets that allow both professional and amateur users to have a very complete tool with which to model sounds for different types of projects. Toraiz As-1 offers the true analog sound of the Dave Smith Instruments 'Prophet-6', two voltage-controlled oscillators, two voltage-controlled filters, two envelope generators, a voltage-controlled amplifier and low-frequency oscillator, and full programming with 495 presets, 495 user programs, quick-access programs, Dual FX engine with seven effects (six from the Dave Smith Instruments Prophet-6 synthesizer), touchpad-style keyboard and slider control, arpeggiator, 64-step sequencer with sequential locking, OLED screen, easy connection to PC/Mac or an external MIDI device, and a very robust design within a metal chassis. Continuing with this NAMM 2017 review, halfway between electronic music and symphonic rock, we stop at the renowned Japanese manufacturer Korg, which at this edition of NAMM also introduced several very interesting products. A good example is the launch of the ARP Odyssey FS, a replica of the legendary Korg duophonic synthesizer that became very popular starting in the 70s and has been used by many great musicians such as Herbie Hancock, George Duke, John Lord, Kraftwerk, or YMO. This release somewhat curbs this manufacturer's tendency to create systems with reduced keybeds. As an alternative to the ARP Odyssey, a version with a slim and reduced-size keyboard, 86% smaller than the original, Korg has created the ARP Odyssey FS, an anticipated model with a standard keyboard. This new synthesizer remains true to the original, respecting all its details, including sound, stability, appearance, and size, but with the reliability of a new synthesizer. Furthermore, the new Korg GrandStage has also been showcased, a new vintage-looking stage piano that comes in two versions, 76 and 88 keys, and comes with 7 sound engines and 8 instrument categories. Another good piece of news from Korg is the jump of one of the most popular apps on iOS to the computer. Korg Gadget is a portable virtual studio—which could soon become an alternative to Reason—that includes over 30 plugins, in AU, VST, AAX, and NKS versions, and a built-in sequencer. To conclude this mini report on the highlights of Winter NAMM 2017, we will mention the new monitor from Dynaudio Pro, from its renowned LYD line, called the Dynaudio Pro LYD-48. This new studio monitor, suitable for working in both mid-field and near-field, is a three-way system with an 8” woofer, 4” mid-range drivers, and 1” tweeters, featuring a Class D amplifier and optimized for low-volume operation, delivering 24-bit/96 kHz quality. Meanwhile, Neumann has introduced its first studio monitor with built-in DSP technology, the Neumann KH 80 DSP, a compact 4” monitor that can adjust its response based on the room’s characteristics. Looking at Pro Audio systems, we discover the new series of digital live mixing consoles from Allen & Heath, called the dLive C Class, which is a more compact version of the successful dLive S series. This new product range also consists of three control surface models, the dLive C1500, C2500, and C3500, and, like the larger series, is accompanied by three mixing rack models, the CDM32, CDM48, and CDM 64. The new dLive C Class series aims to open the dLive platform to a wider range of applications, including AV, installations, and live events, while also making it accessible to those who do not want to carry or install a large-scale professional platform. This brings us to the end of this article, in which we have analyzed what we have learned from this edition of NAMM 2017. These are some of the most notable products. Over the coming weeks, we will take a closer look at the features of many of them. So be sure to follow us on our blog and social media. There is still much more to tell!   MICROFUSA / BARCELONA STORE Sepúlveda, 134. Barcelona / Tel.: 934 553 695 MICROFUSA / MADRID STORE Campoamor, 17.

The list of winners will be published on June 30 on MicroFusa's social media (The prizes are non-transferable and cannot be exchanged) ÒXID Òxid was born in Sabadell, Barcelona. A style clearly influenced by American rock and grunge of the nineties that presents us with a dark reality combined with music full of energy. Lyrics in Catalan and a compilation of tracks with a clear variety of intensities and dynamics that sink in as you listen. Their new EP titled "Quarentena" will be released very soon. The proposal is clear: a devastating, raw, and powerful live set that will leave no one indifferent. EXILI A ELBA From the need to give shape to a message, a pure, rich, and transgressive sound is born. Exili a Elba is rebellion, attitude, pride. The liberation of the 'rebellious self' that only some dare to show. They define themselves as an alternative rock power trio in Catalan that fuses with funk and soul. Formed by Arnau Giordani on vocals and guitar, Adrien Faure on bass, and Miki Grau on drums, Exili a Elba unleashes all their talent with a great and powerful live set. This makes Exili a Elba a unique urban musical alternative in the current context of Catalan music. ARIADNA RULLÓ & THE ELECTRIC FOG Accompanied by @Samuel Escudero and @Berta Kruczinsky, Ariadna Rulló's "Crystal Soul" live set manages to share links with the world of electronic music and more organic singing, along with evocative audiovisuals that complete the band's style. The soundscapes full of feelings and more intimate universes from the album are captured in a much more electronic and extroverted live set, inviting the audience to be part of them. TECHNOPOLITANS Technopolitans is an electronic indie band born in Barcelona in 2014. Their musical style takes elements from multiple indie references such as Two Door Cinema Club and M83 as well as resources from the electronic music of Disclosure, Daft Punk, and Justice. The city has fueled the creativity of the two members, who for years have participated in multiple musical projects. Diego Tomé (DJ) and Victor Vizuete (drums) are the members of Technopolitans, and they have a live session where they delve into the themes of their first work from a DJ perspective, adding live elements, which gives their show greater freshness and sonic possibilities. With a formula that includes pop melodies and french house arrangements, Technopolitans presents fresh tracks, perfect for a party night in Barcelona and anywhere on the planet. SIMØNE Behind Simøne is this artist from Barcelona. He combines his DJ persona in Barcelona with his work as a remixer, but he has also played venues in Vienna, Porto, Hamburg, Madrid, Valencia, Bilbao, Ibiza, Alicante, among others. His recent works with artists such as David Bowie, Stevie Wonder, or Daft Punk have been very well received, and he currently collaborates with the Glassnote and Win labels in NY with artists such as Duke Dumont, Eric Sharp, or Tiga. His record collection is a varied cocktail of Disco, nu Disco, Funk, and 80s, mixed and served with plenty of ice. Bon Appétit DJ2D2 DJ2D2 is as capable of turning a dance floor upside down with an explosive mix of styles as he is of presenting a special podcast designed for a 6-month-old baby to listen to. It is difficult to find another DJ in the city with his experience (this year he turns 20 years behind the decks), prestige, and without a discography to back him up. His formula combines encyclopedic knowledge of new urban trends and great professionalism behind the decks, which has led him to visit cities such as New York, Miami, Tokyo, Frankfurt, Santiago de Chile, Cairo, or Beirut, to name a few…   Remember to download your invitation valid for two people at festa.microfusa.com and show it at the door. We look forward to seeing you! * Limited capacity * Access allowed for those over 16 years old.   COLLABORATORS:

Gustavo

EVENT PROPOSAL The event has two parts. In the afternoon, a forum discussion and panel debate will cover a variety of topics, starting with the idea: "I have a band (or I'm a solo artist) and now I have to deal with aspects that are not purely musical but are of vital importance."
