This one’s had a fair bit of pre-release buzz: it’s a polyphonic instrument that blends an analogue synth, sampler and vocoder. What’s more, it’s been designed very much with the iPad’s multitouch capabilities in mind. Watch this video to see and hear it in action, and buy now to get it for a reduced price.

Somascape HexaChrom, £2.39

A MIDI controller with a difference: rather than looking like a standard keyboard, this isometric device is based on the Harmonic Table. It offers useful musical intervals between adjacent keys, and gives you a different way of playing your favourite software or hardware synths.

Deputy Editor

I’m the Deputy Editor of MusicRadar, having worked on the site since its launch in 2007. I previously spent eight years working on our sister magazine, Computer Music. I’ve been playing the piano, gigging in bands and failing to finish tracks at home for more than 30 years, 24 of which I’ve also spent writing about music and the ever-changing technology used to make it.
