SoundTech Expands
LightSnake Line With an Easy-to-Use
Solution for Multimedia Voice
Applications
Chicago, IL. - May 22, 2007 -
SoundTech Professional Audio, a
division of US Music Corporation,
today announced the LightSnake iChat,
a USB headset with microphone that
offers computer users one solution
for many multimedia audio and voice
applications. The LightSnake iChat
features SoundTech's patented "Live
when Lit" technology that glows when
connected and flashes when sound is
being transmitted.
The
LightSnake iChat is ideal for anyone
who participates in multiplayer
gaming or voice chats over the
Internet. The iChat features clear,
crisp audio and in-line volume
controls perfect for listening to
music or for VoIP calls with
services such as Skype. In the
office the iChat can be used for
voice input on videoconferences or
to take advantage of the latest
speech recognition technology by
talking into the LightSnake iChat's
built-in microphone instead of
typing.
"We
developed the SoundTech LightSnake
line of musical instrument cables to
give our customers a high-quality
yet easy-to-use product for home
recording," said Larry English,
President of US Music Consumer
Division. "The iChat incorporates
the same great features available in
the LightSnake cable line in a
product that can be used in everyday
applications including online voice
chats, listening to MP3s and online
gaming."
The
LightSnake iChat is fully
plug-and-play compatible with a Mac
or PC*- no driver installs are
necessary. In addition, the iChat
features a stereo output allowing a
favorite pair of headphones or
powered speakers to be used in place
of the included iChat ear buds.
