Avid Expands Audio Control Surface Portfolio to Better Address Needs of Smaller Facilities and Project Studios
By Adam Noyes
At Avid Connect Live Nashville at Summer NAMM 2019, Avid® (Nasdaq: AVID) unveiled two new audio control surfaces—the Avid S4 and Avid S1— for professionals at smaller facilities and project studios. These products provide the industry’s most integrated, powerful yet affordable solutions and will be available in late 2019.

For many, the weekend of April 22-23 will be the calm before the NAB Show storm, but for some making their way out to Las Vegas it’ll be the opening course. For the fourth consecutive year Avid will host Avid Connect on the Saturday and Sunday before the NAB Show officially gets underway, and as Avid’s President Jeff Rosica pointed out, the event helps many attendees get in the zone before the broadcast industry’s marquee conference.

I have attended Avid Connect, the world’s greatest gathering of professionals in the media industry, since its inception in 2014. Similarly to previous years, I was quick to save my spot for 2017. As the head of audio post at SpotBot, Inc., and a passionate music composer and engineer, I find this conference valuable for many reasons, but most of all for inspiration, knowledge, and networking.
