2024 has been a great year for new music making gear. As it comes to a close, we’re counting down our top 10 music tech instruments of the past 12 months. You can watch them all in action in our video above, or read more about each in the count down below.
For this round-up, we’re focusing on hardware – there have been a multitude of excellent software releases in the past 12 months, from Ableton Live 12 to FabFilter’s Pro-Q 4, but we’ll save that for another time. We’re sticking to instruments too – hardware synths, samplers and drum machines. Check out our regularly updated buyer’s guides at the links below for the best interface, monitors, mics and headphones. We’re also overlooking the whole modular realm where, again, there have been lots of great releases, but ones we don’t have space to include here.
