In this week's Esoteric Modulation  we talk about effects, the implications of different DSP's, Whether to go in the rack or out and using effects as an instrument. We take a look at a Tate podcast that talks about art and music improvisation. We have a listener question on can something easy to produce or a mistake be art. And we round it off with our Bandcamp artist of the week Matthew Shaw.
