New Pitch Letter

 


A series of Focus Groups held in Los Angeles  with users of Small Format Digital Consoles from the project-studio and post-production markets.

Despite the promise of cost-effective digital mixing and full automation, why has the market reacted so sluggishly? How can a manufacturer extend the market potential for its new or planned offerings? How can it claim a larger market share?

Details of these discussions were made available in a Market Report and companion videocassettes.

For more information about "The 1999 Small-Format Digital Audio Console Study,” contact

New Pitch Letter

 


A series of Focus Groups with users of Digital Audio Workstations from the music and post-production markets spotlighted the challenge faced by DAW manufacturers.

As we discovered, users in the Music Recording market need a powerful set of processing functions, including EQ, dynamics, reverb, etc., within the digital domain.

The Post Production Market, in contrast, requires a different type of functionality than the music sector.

Details of these discussions were made available in a comprehensive Market Report and companion videocassette.
