inMusic 是 Akai、Moog、Native Instruments 等公司的母公司,已决定拥抱改装社区。 In an interview with The Verge , inMusic CEO Jack O’Donnell said, “We’re going to provide a toolbox to the community, we’re going to provide the inner workings of, say, an MPC or Sample so that people can do what they want.”该“工具箱”包括为最近被嘲笑的 MPC Sample Key 等设备提供开源代码,同时还为开发人员提供 SDK,使修改变得更容易,并降低您心爱的采样器变砖的风险。虽然 Akai 渴望看到改装社区的成果,并在正式发布示例密钥之前开始向开发人员提供设备,但该公司非常重视可靠性。奥唐纳表示,该公司希望“确保我们的官方软件完全稳定,并且有利于舞台上的艺术家。”他不能让 Fred 再次上台时发现他的 MPC 充满了错误。但他也希望人们能够放心地进行修补。 “我们会尝试给他们一个重置按钮,”他说,“这样他们就可以尝试一下,然后就不会失去他们所拥有的东西。”该公司计划与 Creator Lab 一起在 NAMM(阿纳海姆音乐制造商年度大会)上引起轰动,在那里,对技术充满好奇的音乐家将有机会亲自动手开发其品牌的 22 种新产品。其中包括 Moog 的产品,由于其模拟设计,这些产品似乎不太适合振动编码。但奥唐纳认为这是可能的,“如果我们正确地打开它。”这将涉及为开发人员构建一个平台来处理电路的模拟部分。其他公司也加入了改装社区。 Erica Synths 最近发布了 LXR-02 鼓机的源代码,Polyend 开源了其 Trackergroovebox 系列,Behringer 还宣布了一系列开源设备,包括售价 150 美元的 MPC One 克隆版 Kick、E-mu SP-1200 克隆版、Anima DJ 控制器、Ignite 音序器和 Polykeys 61 MIDI 控制器。该行业的变化迅速而震撼。 O’Donnell said of the need to provide developers tools for hacking inMusic’s products, “I can tell you it wasn’t on our task list five weeks ago. It just all of a sudden has to be on a task list now.”当然,并不是所有人都感到兴奋。 Elektron 对振动编码模组的出现表达了复杂的感受。该公司禁止在其官方论坛上链接到黑客攻击和修改后的固件,但并未对其进行一般性讨论,理由是担心可能会损坏仪器。 A statement posted on its forums says: “We would always warn against modifications to our firmware and/or machines that could brick them (potentially rendering them unusable), prevent future updates, affect warranty coverage.” While Elektron doesn’t want people posting links to hacked Digitone firmware on its forums, it’s not actively trying to thwart the modding community. The consensus is there’s no going back now that vibe coding has upended the music gear world, and trying to stand in the way would be a mistake. inMusic’s O’Donnell told the Verge, “you can try to wall them off, which is just a losing battle one … and so we want to embrace them.”
