Podular Modcast

Staring into the depths of modular synthesis in the hopes that it stares back

About the show

Join us on our journey through the world of modular synthesis. We will be chatting with synthesists, module manufacturers/designers and synth shop owners to see how modular has impacted their life. And of course we will be doing some patching.
