Andertons Synths, Keys and Tech: Roto-Control Rolls Into the Future (and Fights Back)

If you thought MIDI controllers were stuck in 2009, think again. Andertons Synths, Keys and Tech drop the Melbourne Instruments Roto-Control on the table—a device with motorised, touchy-feely knobs and enough haptic magic to make your old controller cry. Jack Duxbury dives in, spinning through Logic and Bitwig, mapping plugins on the fly, and showing why this box might just be the sonic street weapon your workflow never knew it needed. Spoiler: some features are so wild, you have to see (and feel) them in action.
