Hobnox Tools: Web-based Roland Emulation

Posted By: Shagz

Flash-based music making with a TR-909, a pair of TB-303s and an array of BOSS-look-a-like effects pedals. Amazing flash prog skills going on here, and lots of fun to play around with too.

But really...did the world really need another Roland emulator? :)

The host site, Hobnox.com, is kind of interesting too, a kind of multi-channel, multi-media entertainment hub with a bit of social networking thrown in. Perhaps a little too much of everything? I'm not sure yet just what it is: a web tv network? A social network for musicians and artists? Audio production tools? Or all of these?

It's in beta right now, but looks pretty slick. I wonder where the money's coming from...
