    @SynthTalk the pleasure is all mine. You run a great website. It is very nice to look at, but most of all it has great content - the interviews are very interesting. If you had the opportunity I would like to read an interview with Developers / Engineers from the list below (preferably with all of them) o:)

    • Dimitrij Pavlov aka "JimAudio" (Poison-202 Vintage Synthesizer / Groove Rider GR-16 / Pure Acid) - eg. What was the creation process and how the apps complement each other.
    • Eugenio Giordani from "ApeSoft" (iVCS3 / Mood / ApeMatrix / Accordion Vintage / Electric Vintage) - eg. How to get the desired analog feeling in the mobile app.
    • Jarek Jacek aka "Beep Street" (Sunrizer Synth / Zeeon synth / Drambo) - eg. About work on Drambo - the largest app thread on the forum.
    • Jessie from "Yonac" (ToneStack / Magellan Synthesizer / Roxsyn Guitar Synthesizer) - eg. About rewrite Tonestack to Tonestack PRO version with AUv3 support.

    Of course it would be nice to hear a story from the origins to the present time for each mentioned person regarding the development of subsequent applications, even in the short version :)

  • NeuMNeuM

    Fantastic collection of interviews!

  • SynthTalkSynthTalk

    @dakti thanks, I’ll add these to my list!

  • israeliteisraelite

    Great idea and very comprehensive list. Thanks for your work @dakti . This should awaken inspiration in many future app developers :)

  • daktidakti

    Thanks @SynthTalk, I will look forward to new interviews o:)

    Thanks @israelite, I hope the list will keep growing :)

    I hope also despite the original website not working @jakoB_haQ has original materials to which I can link current dead links. I wrote to Jakob in this topic.

    Hi @dakti . Thanks for the list and links. Something I am also collecting. 🙂

    I will check some playlists and get back with a couple more, but this interview with Arturia's product manager, Edouard Madeuf, is likely to interest folk who like the videos on your list:

    And @SynthTalk , thanks for your very enjoyable website.
    I have been loving reading your collection of interviews, and I look forward to more.

    Cheers,
    Sim

  • SynthTalkSynthTalk

    Thanks @RiverbendSim. I plan to create more articles again in the near future.

  • daktidakti

    @RiverbendSim: Thanks for digging up the thread and add the link to Arturia :) I haven't updated the list from 2021 :# I think many interviews has certainly appeared during this time. I'll try to catch up and update the links as soon as possible (I will mark them on abwiki as "new") o:)

    @SynthTalk: Great news, fingers crossed :)

  • RiverbendSimRiverbendSim

    @SynthTalk - great more interviews with audio app developers is good news. 🙂

    (I would love to read similar articles to those you have, with Rob Jackson, 4pockets Paul, Dmirij Pavlov, Fredric Corvest… the list goes on. So many talented iOS developers! 🙂👍)

    @dakti There’s also a few interviews from YouTube educators and sound designers that are really good resources for budding app developers.

    There was one good iOS YouTubers conference call that Nu-trix hosted during COVID lockdowns. A sort of community/industry/creatives panel discussion. I would like to see more fresh content like that too.
    (I can’t find the link for that one, always forget the title.)

    I will try to wrangle a bit more order into some youtube playlists and see if I find a few more links.
