instrument directly into a PC eliminating the hassle, clutter and learning
curve associated with high-quality digital recording.The LightSnake USB intelligent instrument cable previewed at the
National Association of Music Merchants 2006 (NAMM) show and won “Best in
Show” honors from an independent panel of industry experts for its ability
to provide a streamlined, cost effective solution for analog to digital
recording. NAMM is the single most important event in the music merchant
industry. With over 80,000 registrants in 2006, NAMM brings out the best
