Multi-talented workshops

AV NEWS Set-top boxes and DVR Sales low: The introduction of The HD set-top boxes and the DTH price war has raised hopes of the consumers and lowered the sales of normal boxes. With major channel operators going in for HD transmission, the switch from Normal to HD boxes is ON. However now the situation is that of wait and

watch. The festive season is round the corner and so are discounts, freebies and introduction of new models. Most DTH companies are planning to introduce the HD version of the DVR so DVR sales have plummeted too.

The Return of the music makers: When the computers invaded the AV world they not only wounded the music industry but also affected the livelihood of musicians, The initial volley was fired by computerised synthesisers and drum machines. Today most computer savvy musicians do their background recording score and instrumental compositions on home computer set-ups and use larger studios only for live recordings. However the community as a whole has disoriented but there is always a hope on the horizon. An ingenious software company has created an on line community of talented musicians which has resulted in a web platform where musicians from all over the world can collaborate. The credit for this goes to OHM STUDIO a standalone real-time collaboration software. With OHM STUDIO it is possible to set up a multi talented music workshop for musicians to make music together from the comfort of their homes and like good old times the community can communicate with each other vide the integrated chat application. With this software Music directors and musicians can not only track other music talent all around the world but communicate with and collaborate with them and record them live when they are playing in their own home studio. This saves time, travel and money.
