The Aikido is a seriously useful module for sound design and rhythmic manipulation. It’s perfect for experimental electronic musicians or anyone wanting to add dynamic movement to their patches—the envelope and spectral followers really open up interesting possibilities. Bastl’s design aesthetic and build quality are top-notch, too.
