HoloTouch[dot accent] interactive technology creates holographic images of controls that float in thin air. Simply "touch" the image projected in front of you to dial a cellphone, control medical equipment, change the channel, and more. Mixing via conducting in the air seems only a decade off.......

We tested this pre-amp against 10 or 11 other pre-amp last year and found that this unit worked best for the nylon-stringed guitar.

Dave Matthews Band has taped all of their shows since their earliest days, with the process for doing only getting more complex over time. Their setup is quite impressive -- 48 tracks of 24-bit audio, redundantly multitracked on tape and hard drives, archived on up to 120 CDs per show, which are vacuum-sealed in plastic, closed into PVC piping, and archived in three different climate-controlled locations. That takes a lot of storage space. 120 CDs per show times 100 shows a year times 5 years is 60,000 CD. You'd need a warehouse, or three actually. And who will listen to every single show to see which tracks to use, assuming that they would be released at some point....Editing is a major part of work, i.e. don't keep every photo from a session, just keep the one that says it best, because when are you going to have the time to look through all of them again. I feel the same way about music. I wouldn't want to have to listen to several hundred versions of a song to decide which one I like best. Thanks Richard.
