APRIL
2018; CANTON, OH: The next large format API Vision console has been
commissioned at Kent State University's Stark location. With the
console sale facilitated by Chris Bolitho of Vintage King in 2017, the 32 channel Vision now serves as an integral player in the school's Music
Technology Program.
Music Technology and Audio Recording professor Ian Anderson noted,
"The API Vision has been a real game-changer
for the Audio Recording track of the Music Technology Program. We were
previously an in-the-box-only program, but recently traded in the control
surface for two analog consoles, including our flagship API Vision (which can
also function as a control surface, I might add)."
"Not only will our students be better prepared to enter the industry with
genuine large-format analog console chops, the quality of their recordings has
increased exponentially," Anderson added. "The first time we recorded
drums through the Vision was a real eye-opening experience for them. In the
month and a half we’ve had the console, we’ve recorded a film score (we then
mixed the entire film), a jazz session, a choral session and a number of in-class
rock sessions, and the Vision has never failed to impress."
"We are delighted to add Kent State University at Stark's prestigious
audio program to a long list of educators using API consoles to build the next
generation of music technology professionals," said API President Larry
Droppa. "We're excited to begin receiving applications from Kent State
University at Stark students for the API Saul Walker Memorial
Scholarship."
