And the March 2019 issue of Soundbytes is out now, and I have three reviews in it:

This one is a honey - the iOS port of the Synclavier 2. Pure fm/additive/frame-based synthesis microtonal goodness from the late 70s/early 80s, now on your iPad. And Synclavier Pocket for your iPhone or iPod! I've been having a lot of fun with these.

More utilitarian, this one, but a lot of fun - a complete Foley footstep making sample set from UVI. My colleague George Papanicolaou and I reviewed this one and were pretty impressed.
And from Spitfire Audio, a collection of 5 of compositional sample-set developer Pendle Poucher's Sound Dust sample sets. These are quite wonderful. Each of them is a complete compositional environment, all cleverly conceived and all flawlessly realized - they run in Kontakt Full - well worth checking out. And they're all fairly inexpensive!
