VIP Visits
The NAMM Show is always a good place to run into some of our favorite artists. This year, we were lucky to catch up with Jordan Rudess of Dream Theater, Derek Smalls from Spinal Tap, composer/producer CJ Vanston, musicians KJ Sawka from the bands Pendulum & Destroid, and Alex Esquivel (aka A_Rival) and Helen Eugene from Super Square.
Zynaptiq Nominated for TEC Award – Wins SOS Best New Software Award!
January was an exciting month for Eleven Dimensions software supplier Zynaptiq, whose WORMHOLE sound design software was nominated for a prestigious TEC Award, in the category of Best Signal Processing Software (Effects). WORMHOLE is especially popular with sound designers, who have been using it for creating other-worldly effects for some of today’s most popular movies and TV shows.
While the win ultimately went to our friends from SoundToys, Zynaptiq's new INTENSITY mastering software was also nominated and won Sound-on-Sound Magazine's Best New Software Plug-In of 2019 Reader's Award. This award is very meaningful as it's based on reader/user feedback and votes – people who actually bought, use, and enjoy the product. (Shown alongside 2018's TEC Award nomination for Zynaptiq's Adaptiverb).
