Well, the 141st AES Convention is now open. The throng of eager engineers, producers, and musicians flooded in to get their first look at aisle upon aisle of amazing new gear. Here’s some of the gear that we at Sweetwater are excited about:
The Rupert Neve Designs Shelford Channel combines a half-century of Rupert Neve’s most celebrated console modules, including the venerated 1073 preamp, 1064 inductor EQ, and 2254 compressor, into a powerful 1U channel strip.
The Apogee Element series introduces three new affordable Thunderbolt-powered interfaces with acclaimed Apogee preamps, A/D converters, and clocking baked right in.
Check out our AES Show Report to see even more cool new gear. And if you’re interested in attending in person, you can still get an Exhibits Only Badge FOR FREE, courtesy of Sweetwater! Just show up at the LA Convention Center between Sept. 29 and Oct. 1 and register using the code AES141SWEET. You’ll enjoy seeing the gear and rubbing shoulders with some of the music industry’s greatest producers, engineers, and designers.
