"This latest update has undoubtedly improved what was already a very impressive product and the fact that Sound Forge is cheaper than most of its competitors means it's a seriously good buy." – FutureMusic
"I've tried several competing NLE programs, but Vegas Pro always comes out on top. It has an extremely intuitive design and is focused on user control, which gives me the flexibility that I need in my editing work." – Chris Brickler for TV Technology
"Tracking to tape, Whitcomb pushed the iron particles hard for natural compression, attack and release sculpting – the end result being that these loops sound freakin' fantastic." – Keyboard Magazine in praise of What It Is! '70s Analog Funk

Four frantic days of presentations, meeting friends old and new, and soaking in all the latest musical technology – that's NAMM 2010, the semi-annual meeting of the National Association of Music Merchants, one of the largest music product shows in the world.
Our booth saw a steady stream of current and new users, checking out the latest features and learning about our applications. Jason Gleed demonstrated how he used ACID Pro in scoring TV commercials, Hanna Montana videos, and "Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel." Rudy Sarzo drew crowds of fans and Vegas Pro users as he demonstrated his 3D production techniques in Vegas Pro software. Attendees left with increased knowledge and enthusiasm for our products. Who knows what they'll create next?
We're still catching up from the trip, but hope to have pictures and videos from NAMM 2010 up on our Facebook site soon. See you there!

Congratulations, Mick! The Mick Fleetwood Blues Band has received a Grammy award nomination for 'Blue Again' in the category of Best Traditional Blues Album. Blues? Yes! While Fleetwood Mac is best known as one of the greatest pop groups of all time, Mick Fleetwood is a masterful blues drummer in his own right who stays connected to his roots via side projects, making records and playing clubs with long-time friends and associates.
Our Mick Fleetwood: Total Drumming loop library is a timeline of the Fleetwood style, dotted with key points that reference the Fleetwood Mac sound as it evolved through the decades: the authentic blues of the legendary Peter Green years, the classic FM radio rock years, Mick's forays into world music forms, and finally, the ultimate rhythmic perfection of what today is commonly considered to be the classic, quintessential Fleetwood Mac sound. The best grooves of every phase were deeply reviewed and savored before we turned our attention to the actual recording process. This well-considered approach went a long way in assuring that we hit all the major milestones, including, of course–classic blues.
