All software produced by RS Empi is programmed and tested by Reid Spreiter. Reid is always looking to develop his synthesis and software skills, which is what motivated him to create the Empi collection. These modules focus on simple gate and tempo changes that have the power to influence entire projects, and Reid is looking forward to developing more complicated and diverse iterations in the future. The next steps will most likely involve drones (the musical kind, not the flying kind).
All modules in the Empi collection focus on gates and tempo changes. Tempi is the plural of Tempo, and Reid thinks this word is nifty. However, it is not mysterious enough, so the 'T' must be removed. Moreover, the pronounciation of RS Empi is much softer than RS Tempi.
