CharterOak Acoustic Devices a subsidiary of Connecticut based CharterOak Entertainment Group will announce at San Francisco AES, their intention to expand the time limit on free ADAPT modifications on SA538 and SA538B models, up to one year after the purchase date.
In the one year that has passed since CharterOak initiated ADAPT , the create-your-own-classic-modification program for the SA538 and SA538B vacuum tube condenser microphones, CharterOak has learned many engineers and producers buying microphones don't do sessions every day. As a result, 30 days is too short a period of time to live with the microphone in session, and come up with substantive feedback on how a user might want to alter the timbre of their microphone. "The program was originally designed based on my recording schedule which averages about 300 days a year, and it has come to our attention that this might not be the typical situation for a lot of our end users," remarked Michael Deming, producer, engineer, and president of CharterOak.

Creamware will release in the next weeks the Klangbox series, a bunch of 1 U rack of DSPs using the ASB engine. Playable thru MIDI or USB, the available units will be the MINIMAX, PRO-12, PRODYSSEY and B4000. The units work also as dedicated expansions for the ASB units Creamware released earlier, which in turn can be used to control the racks. The sound edition can be made by MIDI controllers or from a computer based graphical interface on Mac and PC too. All the Klangboxes share the same characteristics: 1U rack, MIDI I/O/T, MIDI thru USB, 12 voices (save the B4000, wich is fully polyphonic), stereo I/O, stereo effects (Delay, Chorus, Flanger).

AudioSkin is a new cable organizer. The AudioSkin collects loose cables and 'zippers' them into one snake with a simple twist of the wrist. But that's not all: you can partially pull out individual cables to any length for connecting to miscellaneous inputs—while keeping the snake intact. AudioSkin is quick and easy to use and re-use. AudioSkin can easily be cut to any length, or combine multiple AudioSkins together to accomodate longer cables. Cables are organized in seconds and are easily removed in one motion - one at a time or all at the same time.
AudioSkin easily holds up to (8) guitar, microphone or monitor cables, and up to (24) Hosa cables. 5 ft. in length; 25 millimeter diameter. MSRP $16.99. (USA)
