Make music in VR with SoundStage

Gaming might seem like an obvious application for virtual reality technology, but it can also be used to tap into your creative side. Pairing with the HTC Vive, music-making suite SoundStage lets you set up a music studio and jam away without having to sound-proof a spare room or spend thousands on heavy equipment and instruments, and it offers a veritable array of amps, drums and synthesisers to create your soundscapes. In other gaming-related news, De La Soul have teamed up with popular mobile phone game series Angry Birds for the release of their latest iteration ‘Angry Birds Action!’ with a new song they’ve purpose-made, even appearing as characters in the trailer.
