SoundTech
Announces General Availability For
LightSnake USB Intelligent
Microphone Cable
From Podcasting
to Hip-Hop to Vocal and Karaoke
Production, LightSnake Makes
Computer Recording Easy For Anyone
Chicago, IL. - January 23, 2007 -
SoundTech Professional Audio, a
division of US Music Corporation,
announced today the availability of
the LightSnake, an intelligent
microphone-to-PC cable with embedded
analog to digital converter and
signal booster. The LightSnake
features SoundTech's patented "Live
when Lit" technology cable ends that
glow and flash indicating when sound
is being transmitted.
The
LightSnake USB intelligent
microphone cable connects with any
standard microphone and plugs
directly into the PC USB port,
dramatically reducing the cost and
clutter traditionally associated
with digital recording. Now
musicians can easily enjoy the same
digital recording abilities once
reserved for high-end studio
sessions.
Modern Digital Audio Workstation (DAW)
software, such as Apple GarageBand
and Sony Acid® Music Studio
harness the power of PCs allowing
musicians to arrange songs, mix
beats and record, layer and mix
their own voices. The LightSnake USB
provides the easiest method to
connect a microphone to a computer
for recording by simply plugging the
XLR tip of the LightSnake into the
microphone and the USB end to a PC.
Podcasters can also benefit from the
LightSnake. Podcasting, a new form
of communication popularized by
Apple's iPod and former MTV video
jockey Adam Curry, allows anyone to
distribute their recordings, such as
radio programs, speeches and
interviews to a near limitless
audience over the Internet. The
LightSnake's streamlined design,
ease of use and compatibility with
professional quality XLR microphones
is ideal for recording high-quality
digital Podcasts.
