Last week I was privileged to be a guest on the Senior Synth Show, along with Henrick (JX3D), Marc Barnes of Angelstar, and Dan Phillips, of Korg R&D California - the father of the Wavestate. I was able to ask Dan a lot of questions and get some information on what is happening with the Wavestate line, the fate of the Wavestate SE, what else might be coming out, and more. I'm including Dan's comments in this video.

I realized that the last time I did a tour of my studio was almost two years ago, and plenty has changed in that time. Some synths are new, some have gone away. In this video I tour you through my studio, sample the sounds of every synth, and explain my rationale for having each of the synths.

I've been working with synthesizers for well over 30 years. Today's episode is a bit different: I describe how I came up in the world of music, talk about my career as a professional club DJ, and then describe how I managed to permanently destroy my hearing, how it affects me today, and how I adapt.
