It is dark and raining. You are on holiday in the Scottish highlands and looking for somewhere to stay for the night when you come across a magnificent Gothic castle. Even though the place looks a bit spooky, you book a room. As you are dropping off to sleep, you are startled by the sudden appearance in your room of a ghostly bagpiper and a loud scream from somewhere down the corridor. You jump out of bed and decide to make a quick exit. All members of your band will love this spooky tale especially as they can add their own ghostly sounds and effects.

Radius goes far beyond traditional ring modulation. With precise control over the balance and frequency ratios of both sidebands, you'll have more advanced control than with any ring mod that has come before. Organic, complex harmonic structures, bell-like tones, metallic textures, frequency shifting, soft tremolo, and bubbly phaser sounds are all on tap. Pitch tracking, a push-to-tune footswitch, and picking dynamics make it responsive and predictable in concert. In the studio, Radius has well-spaced controls for tabletop use and a full MIDI implementation for DAW integration. The 24-bit 96 kHz codec, audiophile op amps and stereo input/output make it equally at home in the studio or control room. Radius is a musical ring modulator and frequency shifter that lets you modfy the timbre of your instrument in new ways. With a multi-waveform LFO, step modulator, and MIDI-playable carrier oscillator, Radius modernizes classic electronic techniques for the future. Features: • Stereo ring modulator and frequency shifter • Continuous mix between ring modulation and frequency shifting • Selectable 2X frequency ratios for upper and lower sidebands • Frequency shifting with feedback • Three carrier frequency ranges (low, high, quantized) • Carrier frequency pitch tracking (monophonic, +/- 100%) • Pust-to-tone carrier oscillator • MIDI-playable carrier oscillator • Multi-waveform LFO (triangle, square, random, intelligent random, X mod +/-) • Step modulator (1-8 steps), programmable via front panel • Tap tempo and MIDI clock sync • Envelope follower • Envelope-triggered LFO (one-shot ramp, pulse, random, step mod) • Configurable AUX switch (tap, tune, preset, LFO) • USB and TRS MIDI • Full MIDI implementation • 96 kHz sampling rate • Web editor with preset upload/download • User-installable firmware updates (USB) Designed and assembled in USA. Requires a 9V DC 250 mA power supply (not included).

Many people when asked the question 'Do you have any hobbies?' will answer 'Shopping' (even though the female part of the population may be more interested in this than the male one).
Of course it is great fun to walk about in a Shopping Mall, browsing in various small shops, looking for things you have always wanted to possess.

This was what William Vean was doing one day when he came across the idea to write a composition in which several shops could try to sell their wares (and this idea didn't cost him a penny).
First, the audience are taken to a 'Jeans store', then a 'Phone shop' is visited, after which a visit is made to a 'Perfumery'.
Thefourth part depicts a profession which is practised in several premises, namely that of shoplifter.
In the fifth part there is room for a bite to eat at a Chinese restaurant, and finally after a visit to the hairdresser's it's time to go home.

Veel mensen die de vraag krijgen wat voor hobby's ze hebben, zullen als antwoord geven: winkelen (waarschijnlijk zal er een verschil zijn tussen mannen en vrouwen).
Natuurlijk is het altijd leuk om door een winkelcentrum te slenteren,allerlei etalages te bekijken, en te dromen van dingen die je graag in je bezit zou willen hebben!

Dit overkwam William Vean ook. Hij wilde een compositie maken waarin verschillende winkels reclame konden maken (zonderdat het hemzelf een cent zou gaan kosten!).

Eerst gaan we naar een jeans store en daarna bezoeken we een telefoonwinkel. Als derde gaan we naar een parfumerie om een lekker geurtje uit te zoeken.
In het vierde deelverschijnt een persoon die we niet graag tegenkomen: een dief. Zal hij gepakt worden door de sterke arm?
Van al dat winkelen krijgen we trek en we besluiten tot een Chinese maaltijd. Na een bezoek aan de kapper wordt het tijdhuiswaarts te keren!

De componist laat ruimte, vooral voor de slagwerkers, verschillende beroepen uit te beelden door middel van diverse solo-instrumenten en handelingen, in aanvulling op de al zeer creatief geschreven muiek.
