Project Studio Expo in full swing at the 135th AES ConventionA highlight of the 135th Audio Engineering Society Convention, held Thursday 17 October to Sunday 20 October 2013, in New York City, was the second annual Project Studio Expo, delivered by Sound On Sound. Bringing a practical home-studio focus to the pro-audio trade show, the second annual outing of Project Studio Expo proved an enormous success, and with show attendance at a five-year high, every seat was filled throughout two days of workshops, talks and panel discussions.
The PSE included presentations by leading industry authors, journalists and educators, including Craig Anderton, Bill Gibson, Mike Metlay, Andrea Pejrolo, Gino Robair, Hugh Robjohns, Mike Senior, Paul White, Larry Crane, Kevin Becka, Frank Wells and Strother Bullins. Additionally, Craig Anderton also hosted a Q&A session with five-time Grammy Award-winner Jimmy Jam.
The Project Studio Expo was sponsored by Gibson Brands, Focusrite, SAE Institute and Sennheiser, who very kindly donated wireless headphones, allowing attendees to become fully immersed in the experience.
Bringing together the top people, tools and techniques, in order that attendees could learn best practices and tricks from the pros, the Project Studio Expo covered topics ranging from acoustics in small spaces to mic placement, mixing and mastering.
SOS Editor-in-Chief Paul White stated: “Once again PSE was absolutely packed, confirming that there is definitely a place within the AES for those still travelling the path to audio enlightenment as well as those who have already arrived. Both the number and quality of questions from the floor was most encouraging. The people attending those sessions represent the future of our industry and it is gratifying that the AES has recognised this in getting behind the PSE concept.”
