PUSH TURN MOVE is a brand new book on electronic music instruments and a must-have for every synth and design freak.

SYNTH GEMS 1 wurde von dem bekannten Synthesizer-Experten und Musikjournalisten "Dr. Mike" Metlay verfasst und kuratiert. Das neueste Buch des dänischen Boutique-Verlag Bjooks (Push Turn Move u.a.) nimmt den Leser mit auf eine chronologische Reise durch eine einzigartige Auswahl von über 60 Synthesizern - einige beliebt, einige selten, alle wunderschön. SYNTH GEMS 1 richtet sich sowohl an Synthesizer-Neulinge als auch an erfahrene Elektronikmusiker und umspannt den kritischen historischen Zeitraum von 1970 bis 2000 mit atemberaubenden Fotos und detaillierten Artikeln, die die Geschichte, die Technologie und das Vermächtnis jedes Instruments erklären.

The product that started it all for Empirical Labs. Born of founder Dave Derr’s love of classic compressors like the 1176, LA-2A and Gain Brain (among others), the Distressor incorporates his favorite sonic characteristics of these, along with other unique and interesting features that have made it a staple for audio engineers all over the world. With over 28,000 units in the field, it’s safe to say that the Distressor is one of the best selling high end compressors of all time… if not THE best selling. A prominent recording engineer recently wagered that there probably was not a top 40 record made in the last five years that didn’t have at least one Distressor on it.

Arguably the coolest and most unique device in the Empirical Labs arsenal, the FATSO (Full Analog Tape Simulator and Optimizer) is a digitally controlled analog device that gives musicians and engineers easy access to many of the desirable characteristics exhibited by older tube and Class A electronics and magnetic tape mediums. This two channel audio processor musically integrates frequencies and transients, increasing the apparent volume while keeping tight control over peak levels.

In today’s modern age of digital recorders, DAWs and software plug-ins, Mike-E is the ultimate solution for getting a clean and strong, yet warm and musical signal into the box…and it couldn’t be easier to work – its front panel layout is so straight ahead that even inexperienced engineers will have no problem moving around on it right away.

As with ELI’s other signal processors, the Lil FrEQ Equalizer takes a somewhat unique approach to its job. Instead of daisy chaining several equalizers and frequency processors, we combined most of the sound sculpting tools an engineer needs into a compact single rack space box, while still offering the highest performance of any design in its class.
