Doctor Mix at NAMM 2026: Camelot, Stylophone, and Live Rig Mayhem

, , , , 

Doctor Mix storms NAMM 2026 with a double-barrelled blast of live performance tech and cheeky sampling fun. First up, he and Simone from Audio Modeling show off Camelot—a platform that turns your gig rig into a seamless, scene-switching monster. Forget dropouts and clunky transitions; this thing keeps your set tighter than a warehouse rave at 3am. Then, in classic Doctor Mix style, he detours to the Stylophone booth for a hands-on with their new sampler—cheap, cheerful, and primed for instant sonic mischief. If you want a taste of the future (and a few laughs), this one’s pure NAMM energy.

Camelot: The Live Rig Puppetmaster

Doctor Mix kicks things off at the Audio Modeling stand with Simone, diving straight into Camelot’s live performance chops. The setup here is all about control—one SL88 keyboard, Camelot as the brain, and a timeline that lets you stack tracks, scenes, and sounds like a pro. No faffing with laptops mid-set; everything’s mapped and ready to fire, so you can focus on playing, not panicking.

Camelot’s secret sauce? It lets you prep your entire set in advance, slotting in scenes and backing tracks wherever you need them. As the timeline rolls, it triggers sound changes and adds layers—bass, pads, whatever you fancy—without breaking a sweat. It’s the kind of workflow that turns a potential gear nightmare into a smooth, one-man rave bunker. Doctor Mix’s trademark enthusiasm is on full display, but for once, the hype feels justified.


Scene Switching: No Dropouts, No Drama

The real party trick here is Camelot’s scene-based sound switching. As your set progresses, Camelot flips between scenes instantly, loading new sounds right on cue—no awkward silences, no audio glitches, just pure, uninterrupted flow. For anyone who’s ever had a synth choke mid-gig, this is the stuff of dreams. The transitions are so clean, you’ll barely notice them—unless you’re the one running the show, in which case you’ll be grinning like you just found a fiver in your old rave jacket.

When the progress will hit this flag, the sound will change because it will be loaded in another scene without sound interruption.

MIDI Mayhem and CPU Zen

Camelot isn’t just about pretty timelines—it’s a MIDI powerhouse. Program changes are sent out to Omnisphere and Kontakt, letting you trigger complex multis and patches with a single scene switch. Everything’s routed through MIDI, so you can control your whole rig from one place. No more tap-dancing on pedals or praying your laptop doesn’t freeze.

Even better, Camelot keeps things CPU-friendly by loading just one Omnisphere multi and switching channels as you go. That means less strain on your machine and more headroom for those massive pads and basses. It’s a clever workaround for live players who want power without the panic. If you want to see the nitty-gritty, you’ll have to watch the video—Doctor Mix and Simone break it down with all the Italian flair you’d expect.

Stylophone Sampler: Cheap, Cheeky, and Ready to Rumble

After all that serious rig talk, Doctor Mix swings by the Stylophone booth for a dose of pure fun. The new Stylophone Sampler is a pocket-sized mischief machine: record your voice or any sound, pitch it up or down, slap on some effects, and sequence away. It’s dead simple—three sample slots, built-in drums, and enough weirdness to keep you entertained for hours.

At fifty bucks, this thing is a no-brainer for anyone who likes their gear playful and immediate. Doctor Mix can’t help but grin as he mangles his voice and triggers spot effects. It’s not about pristine fidelity; it’s about having a laugh and making something wild on the fly. If you want to see just how much chaos you can squeeze out of a toy, the video’s got you covered.

So it's quick and easy to use. So you can just record your voice into the mic on the front or you can record from the auxiliary in on the…
