Expressive E’s latest firmware update for the Osmose transforms this already boundary-pushing instrument into a serious hub for expressive digital workflows. With version 2.3, the Osmose now offers advanced DAW integration and access to the Ctrl-e platform, giving musicians hands-on control over both software and hardware setups. The update focuses not just on more sounds and presets, but on refining the user experience—streamlining MIDI, adding workflow shortcuts, and making the Osmose an even more compelling centerpiece for creative studios and stage rigs.

Verbos Electronics Haas Zone Processor: Short Delay, Deep Modulation

MILES

Verbos Electronics, ever the champions of West Coast modular quirks, unveil their Haas Zone Processor—a clocked multi-tap digital delay bank with a twist. In this first demo, the focus is on short delay times and the subtle (or not so subtle) ways these can warp, flange, and phase your signals. Expect comb filtering, feedback through a bandpass filter, and clever normalled routings that encourage experimental patching. It’s not just another delay; it’s a playground for time-domain mischief, as demonstrated with precision and a dry sense of humour.
