Remember NAMM 2007? We were in “the basement”, Hall E, for our first NAMM Show. Next to us were the nice guys of SoundToys, who were demoing their plugins (and offering us chocolate occasionally, a bold move since we are from Belgium :-) .

SoundToys hops into the arts as part of the local Art Hop in Burlington. SoundToys will be providing space in the new SoundToys building for artist displays and setting up their own “Sound Space” audio art exhibit. The “Sound Space” will feature SoundToys professional audio effects plug-ins, audio tracks provided by Burlington native and World renowned remix artist Morgan Page, and the AudioCubes (Percussa’s tangible interface to control computers and audio software). South End Arts and Business Association (SEABA) of Burlinton Vermont will be hosting the 16th annual South End Art Hop on September 5 & 6, where more than 600 artists will display their work in over 100 studios and business locations.

SoundToys has chosen the Percussa AudioCubes as their preferred human-computer interface to interact with their computers and plugins:

“This is a cool event that provides exposure to artists and the arts for a community rich in expression. As part of that community and with music being the backbone of SoundToys existence, it’s an easy choice to donate space in our building for this event, and to provide our own bit of art as well. ” says Mitch Thomas, SoundToys Sales & Marketing Director, “When Ken (Ken Bogdanowicz, owner and founder of SoundToys) told me about the event and asked if I had any ideas about hands-on musical computer interfaces we could use to demo our plugins, I immediately thought of the amazing AudioCubes from Percussa. We were next to them at a recent trade show and I was blown away with these flashing, pulsing colored light cubes that you could move and twist and control and explore any aspect of your music software.”

“We were also lucky enough to get tracks from our good friend, Burlington native, and rising remix star Morgan Page. Morgan is always amazingly busy (He was in Norway when we called), but found time to supply us with the tracks from his latest single “Call My Name” featured on his new CD “Elevate”. His tracks are infectious. He is great as a remixer and his CD proves he’s a great song writer and artist as well.” Says Thomas.
