Cerwin-Vega is introducing a line of professional audio mixers that are designed for live performance and recording applications. Available in 10, 12 or 16 channel versions, the new mixer range offers extensive features such as digital sound effects processing and USB input/output for laptop computer playback and recording.
The INSERT, AUX and EFX sends allow connection to external dynamics, equalization and effects units giving a high level of customization. The peak LED indicator allows a user to check on the signal input of each channel. The mixers also feature TAPE IN and REC OUT RCA jacks, which enable users to directly connect to a CD/MP3 player or an audio recorder.

Helical Software today introduces AudioGopher 1.0, a first-of-its kind audio annotation application for iPhone and iPod touch.
AudioGopher is an audio player that allows users to place bookmarks, with editable text, within podcasts, audiobooks, or radio recordings. AudioGopher can be used by anyone. An iPod Classic-style jog wheel also allows fine-grained fast forward/reverse, regardless of the track length. It's the digital equivalent of dog-earing a page and just as easy to do.

Unlike conventional keyboard-controlled synthesizers, Reactive detects the input signal's dynamic envelope and transforms it into pitch information via a note matrix that has eight switchable patterns.
The envelope and pitch are then used to drive three distinct synthesizer engines – waveshape modeling, phase modulation, and subtractive with ring modulation – allowing you to come up with interesting motion sounds, from pulsating drones and melodic strums to fat basses and weird glitch lines. Like all Sinevibes products, Reactive will be simple and fun to use, with a color-coded interface and fast response.
