MI7 and PreSonus at Inter BEE 2012!
[This just in from MI7, our distributors in Japan!]
We exhibited at Inter BEE 2012. Recognized as a professional show for audio, video and communications, Inter BEE has established itself as an international exhibition showcasing top-level domestic and overseas broadcast, video, audio and lighting equipment as well as peripheral applications and solutions all under one roof.
We displayed two sections for music production solutions: medium-format live solution and small-format live solution. StudioLive and Studio One was most popular! The visitors enjoyed the sound and hands-on experience. We obtained approximately 700 leads! I attached some photo for your reference. Thank you for your support.
WORLD PREMIERE – Scott Szeryk – “Black Squirrel Funk” – Live at Aeolian Hall
Up for some funky shred? Because Scott’s StudioLive 24.4.2 sure was. Sounds like a studio track, but this is allllll live. 🙂
Ray Johnston Band Produces EPK Track Live via StudioLive 16.4.2

Scott Szeryk Opines on the StudioLive
[This just in from Scott Szeryk, composer, six-string virtuoso and Royal Conservatory of Music gradate!]
“Since switching over to the PreSonus StudioLive 24.4.2 Scott Szeryk has never sounded better in the studio or on the stage… Szeryk’s latest release “Guitar Manifesto” is evidence of just how good the PreSonus Studio Live sounds!” Give it a listen!
Since the mid-90s, I had been using the Tascam M3500 as my main mixing desk for the home studio, but was becoming a bit weary of its compatibility with modern-day recording setups. When I heard how great the XMAX preamps sounded on a StudioLive, I was instantly sold. Not to mention the insane power and functionality of the board, especially for live FOH! Changing over to the StudioLive 24.4.2was an easy, practical decision…The StudioLive not only shines in the studio but also in live applications! We were able to do spot- on monitor checks, even before the band had arrived at the venue for sound check, by playing back program material from shows previously recorded in Capture. The integration of Universal Control also meant that the onstage players could also control their own monitor mix via iPad SL Remote. There were a few times when we were able to Mix FOH on the iPad when there was a less-than-ideal location for the board at the venue. We rely heavily on the PreSonus StudioLive for recording all of our shows. Check out the latest DVD “Scott Szeryk live at Aeolian Hall!”

Scott Szeryk Live at Aeolian Hall w/ the StudioLive 24.4.2
[this just in from Scott Szeryk!]
Hey PreSonus!
Check this out: We are in the process of a live DVD, “Scott Szeryk Live at Aeolian Hall,” from his Manifesto Tour from summer or 2012. This was recorded on the one and only StudioLive 24.4.2! Note the iPad on the mic stand, which was used for i- ear monitor mixing via SL-Remote. Totally awesome!
Coming Soon in Universal Control 1.7…
PreSonus Universal Control 1.7, which will be released soon, will add three Smaart® System Analysis Wizards to Virtual StudioLive—for free! These System Analysis Wizards include a Smaart Room Analysis Wizard, Smaart Output Check Wizard, and Smaart System Delay Wizard for StudioLive™ 24.4.2 and 16.4.2 consoles.
Of course, you still get the Smaart Spectragraph and Smaart Real Time Analyzer (RTA) that were added to VSL earlier this year, and they work with all three StudioLive models.
These Smaart tools enable you to vastly improve the quality of your sound system—and your effectiveness as a live-sound engineer! You can even interface with them via StudioLive Remote on your iPad.
With these tools in your arsenal, you should probably start charging more for gigs. Just sayin’.
PreSonus at Broadcast India 2012
This just in from Sudhin, our partner at ProMusicals, our distributor in India!
“Just back from Broadcast India show! (Oct 10th-12th, 2012) It was a decent show, and featured some serious cameras and lights. Hereare a few pics of the mixers on demo at the show. We demoed the new Smaart features, capture for broadcast studios, etc. All visitors without exception were impressed with the simplicity and user-friendliness of this mixer!”
Halocene: PreSonus-Powered From the Garage to the Warped Tour
Halocene has been using PreSonus since their first purchase of a FireStudio years ago. Of late they’ve picked up a StudioLive console, a Eureka, and Studio One Professional 2… and in-between they’ve opened for Jimmy Eat World and Blink-182.
Lesson learned: You don’t need to be signed to a major with world-class studio access to open for a band who is. Just get some PreSonus.
Oh, also be sure to write good songs and be young and enthusiastic. That helps, too.
