I just upgraded

my mixer to a StudioLive 32.4.2AI with the upgrade discount.
 
 I'm trading in my SL24.4.2 which I got off ebay for about £1200 two years ago.
The regular price on their site is shown as £3549 so I've effectively had my old mixer for two years for free!!!
 
How kewl is that?

Hi Karyn,
You also get a license for Studio One 2 Professional. How cool is that?
 
;-)

What does this Fred have to do with the price of Becan in England? 

And because it's still June here I qualify for a free PRM-1.  Another measurement mic and no ARC2....

 
My mixer is a Classic, but I'm considering upgrading it (they have them in color now). 

Karyn
Ultimate or standard?

Standard........someone has to set them ya?

I am jealous but also happy for you .
 
Presonus is located in my home state about 30 minutes away.
 
I see they just purchased a speaker company that builds touring venue systems.
 
Looks like Presonus is going for the big time sound business

Karyn
I don't know about purchased a company...   The impression they give is they employed/contracted a guy to design the speaker system for them.
It's all part of the Active Integration thing they're pushing.
 
The speakers look very nice, I want some but can't afford them

L to R: PreSonus Chairman of the Board Kevin Couhig, WorxAudio CEO and Director of Engineering Hugh Sarvis, and PreSonus CEO Jim Mack.
PreSonus is pleased to announce the acquisition of loudspeaker manufacturer WorxAudio Technologies, Inc., of Greensboro, North Carolina, founded in 1979 by CEO and Director of Engineering Hugh Sarvis.
 
WorxAudio designs and manufactures a broad range of line array, point-source, sub-bass, stage monitor, and related loudspeaker systems and accessories. WorxAudio has established itself as a leading provider of loudspeaker systems in the mid to large church market, professional touring, and corporate AV channels.
With this acquisition, WorxAudio will significantly augment core elements of PreSonus’ professional loudspeaker development efforts, especially drivers, system and mechanical design, system tuning, and rigging system design. In addition, WorxAudio’s knowledge of the commercial sound and portable/touring markets will help PreSonus develop the infrastructure required to support the specific requirements of those customers. With PreSonus’s technical, software, distribution, and financial resources and WorxAudio’s technical, domain, and production expertise, the resulting collaboration—led by Hugh Sarvis—creates a very formidable competitor in the live-sound loudspeaker market.
“This is a logical move for us,” observes PreSonus CEO Jim Mack. “Our StudioLive™ AI series loudspeakers are great for small to medium-sized venues, but the advanced DSP platform utilized in the AI speaker line, including the optional Dante networking capability, is extremely valuable for systems designed for much larger venues and environments. The acquisition of WorxAudio significantly extends our product line to provide advanced networked loudspeaker systems to a much larger audience. Further, this acquisition brings us extremely valuable engineering system design expertise and technology, as well as loudspeaker manufacturing expertise.”
WorxAudio has gained considerable notoriety by placing near the top in several loudspeaker array shootouts, and they were the first company to implement AFMG’s advanced FIRMaker technology.
Says AFMG’s Managing Director Stefan Feistel, “WorxAudio is a premium example of a long-lasting, very positive business relationship for AFMG. WorxAudio is the first FIRmaker licensee to actually deliver two very impressive installs employing this revolutionary technology. Congratulations!”
One of the fastest growing companies in the pro audio industry, PreSonus has a well-established worldwide sales channel and, in recent years, has significantly expanded its operations, marketing and branding, testing facilities, and technical/customer support. The combined companies are expected to develop a broad range of loudspeakers for studio and stage, from low-cost, high-value products for musicians to advanced systems for mid-sized rental touring companies and systems integrators.
 
 “Like WorxAudio, PreSonus is engineering-driven,” comments Sarvis. “We’re excited about combining our engineering know-how with PreSonus’ networking, software, and signal-processing technology to develop groundbreaking and highly competitive new professional audio products.”

Jbow, also consider looking at the features/price/reviews of the Cuisinart Mixers. I got my wife one of these (about 4-5 years ago) as it had more to offer than the Kitchenaid and my wife is very happy with it.

I am just so glad that you can use 32 channels, that is about 30 more than I care to even think about.
