We finally caught up with our good old friend Peter Edwards (Casper Electronics) to talk about the Softpop SP2, which he co-created with Bastl’s co-founder Vašek Peloušek a few years ago. Peter shared some stories, insights into his design approach, and the personal touches he added to the SP2. Of course, we couldn’t let him go without a proper live set and a hands-on setup rundown.
Thanks, Peter!
