It's behind you!

Dave Smith Instruments Tweeted a picture yesterday of guest artists Dontae Winslow and Daniel Jones, who dropped by the San Francisco office.

However - and no offence to messrs Winslow and Jones - the exciting news is what is just to the left the of the pair -an as yet unreleased OB-6 synth desktop module.

It's no surprise that DSI has made a module version of the OB-6, but we're not entirely sure if releasing the news in this manner was deliberate. However, we're pretty confident that an official announcement will come soon - possibly at Summer NAMM 2016, either today or over the next few days.

I take care of the reviews on MusicRadar and Future Music magazine, though can sometimes be spotted in front of a camera talking little sense in the presence of real musicians. For the past 30 years, I have been unable to decide on which instrument to master, so haven't bothered. Currently, a lover of all things high-gain in the guitar stakes and never one to resist churning out sub-standard funky breaks, the likes of which you'll never hear.
