Mackie at NAMM - Press Conference

The most exciting part of the show. Really. How can you go wrong with meetings and press conferences. All you need is a notebook, headphones with loud music and a bloodstream full of triple mocha lattés. Actually, mundane meetings are an important part of any product rollout.

Okay, not the press conference, but the Mackie's sales meeting resulted in a deafening roar from the crowd after we bestowed our new gear upon them.

This is indeed the press conference. The guy behind the podium is Ken Berger, our Sr. Vice President of Marketing. Wanna go swimming?

Kyle opens the press conference with a witty joke. But then it's down to serious business as he informs the press of Mackie's new products.

Kenton Forsythe, co-founder and president of EAW, presents EAW's newest loudspeakers to the industry trades

Keith takes a few moments to go over the technical aspects of each new product.

This product manager accepts the love after showing the TT24 Digital Live Console for the first time. Better spread those arms out wider, John.
