Some cool news items from Sonic Charge, creators of the excellent Microtonic Drum Synth.
The first is the introduction of the Microtonic Patternarium, what Sonic Charge refers to as an "online collaborative patch randomizer". This tool will create random sounds and rhythms that you give the thumbs up or thumbs down to in order to influence their evolution. You can definitely see Synplant's hand (tendril?) in influencing this...
The second is the announcement that the next version of Microtonic is currently in beta testing. The company is currently accepting applications for a limited number of beta testers, so if you'd like to give it a go, just fill out the application. No new details as of yet aside from the fact that it will support MIDI program change and drag and drop of patterns as MIDI files. (I'm personally hoping for a dedicated pattern page where I can see the trigger buttons for all sounds at once and a more pleasant, analog sounding distortion...)

I love some things about microtonic, but the sequencer and sound options are a little to limiting. I've rarely used it and I've had it since it came out.
I'm really interested to see the new version.
