The Soundtracs brand is to be revived by DiGiCo at the forthcoming Namm show.

Soundtracs has a long history in both music recording and postproduction studios, and is set to preview a range of new products that are designed to take advantage of DiGiCo’s advancements in digital FPGA designs and Stealth Digital Processing.

‘Moving back to studio market with Soundtracs was always something we planned to do,’ says DiGiCo MD, James Gordon. ‘The challenge was developing products with the right technology that would offer something revolutionary.

‘There have been lots of technology shifts in the last few years and we saw this as a great opportunity, but we needed to partner with the right company and there was really only one option for us.’

The last significant launch for Soundtracs was the DS-00 production console in 2003, and the reintroduction has been a long-planned project – that Gordon says ‘will keep you guessing until the Namm announcement’.

‘I was fortunate enough to get a preview of the project the Soundtracs design team were working on during the summer,’ says Simon Blackwood, DiGiCo Business Development Director. ‘The design concept is truly compelling and the Namm product launch will challenge market perceptions of the Soundtracs brand. The product line is set to change the shape of networked audio and create significant new opportunities for our prospective users.’

The new range is planned to ship progressively from Q2 2013.
