MIDI’s Birthday Bash
If you’re planning to attend the Winter NAMM music products show, January 16-19 2003, in Anaheim, California, be sure to check out booth 1385 in Hall E of the Anaheim Convention Center! There you’ll find the MIDI Manufacturers Association (MMA) throwing the MIDI 20th Anniversary Celebration. The MIDI 20th Anniversary Celebration will include a silent auction of MIDI gear used by famous artists as well as product giveaways and 20th Anniversary memorabilia. MMA members are supporting the event by donating new and “vintage” MIDI equipment that will be auctioned off or given away, and many are also providing MIDI products–from keyboards and lighting rigs to cell phones–for display at the booth.
