Canada’s largest pro audio and lighting show took place this past weekend in Toronto. I’ve actually never gone before (GASP!) but decided to head down this year with a handful of like-minded associates (friends).
My major interest was preamps and mics for studio application, and unfortunately I was a little disappointed. Predictably, the show emphasizes live sound reinforcement and lighting. A small handful of manufacturers did have mics set up that attendees could audition at the push of a button. Pretty cool, even if it is a useless exercise.
Still, its always fun to shoot the sugar with people who can appreciate signal chain and AD conversion! One of these days I’ll get myself down to a NAMM show.
