Subject: [DEF] BSP: 1.29.10 Radio Integrated Live from the Bliss Factory with Haptic Synapses & AlixrThose who have been following the Radio integrated broadcasts over the
last couple of years will know every broadcast is an informal party full
of surprises, torrents of free flowing beer, Chinese take out, new
friends and of course… some of the best techno talent the Bay Area has
to offer.This broadcast will be no exception to the rule as we continue onward
into the new year with:HAPTIC SYNAPSES. Haptic Synapses is a recently formed crew of some of
the leading players from the Dobox label out of San Jose, the Rhythmist,
Steve Cooley, and Qorser. Each member brings their own personality to
the table, with tech represented by Cooley, funk realized by The
Rhythmist, and deep soul as touched upon by Qorser. They each have come
together to jam out in the form of a live P.A. on a combination of self
made software & hardware to give real meaning to words techno soul in a
style that is both truly original and west coast..

savage’ with a temperate demeanor.. however you peg Alex, he’s always
down like Charlie Brown to show you that there’s a big heart behind the
music he plays. Alixr’s love of techno is what shows through every time
he plays out it is what drives a deep connection between him and his
audience of growing supporters throughout the bay.Listen live via the Web:

Announcements • Roxor 2.1
This version of Roxor is largely cosmetic in that it’s visually smaller on screen. This became an obvious improvement when we started using the previous version in performance situations. We found it helpful to verify what roxor and steppa were doing, but not at the expense of too much screen real estate. So they’ve been made smaller to do their job and be useful without being a live performance workflow problem.
The other recent updates are that the radio buttons in the serial device list are now functional if you need to disconnect from your beatseqr hardware for any reason. Also, the random circle drawing effect has been replaced with a more functional tempo and swing value readout from the hardware. When you are connected to the hardware, turn a knob to verify that Roxor is reading values. The tempo and/or swing values will mirror what the hardware says on the LCD panel.

Announcements • Steppa 032
Derek has released steppa 032. This feature enables on-board handling of the Midi CC modes for sliders and voice select buttons. This was previously possible by using the awesome and extremely useful Osculator. However, we’d always planned on bringing the functionality into our own toolchain, and now we have.
