– Press Release

SoundTech Professional Audio has announced the release of the LightSnake, an intelligent microphone-to-PC cable with embedded analog to
digital converter and signal booster. The LightSnake features SoundTech’s
patented “Live when Lit” technology cable ends that glow and flash
indicating when sound is being transmitted.

The LightSnake USB intelligent microphone cable connects with any
standard microphone and plugs directly into the PC USB port, dramatically
reducing the cost and clutter traditionally associated with digital
recording. Now musicians can easily enjoy the same digital recording
abilities once reserved for high-end studio sessions.

Modern Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) software, such as Apple
GarageBand and Sony Acid(R) Music Studio harness the power of PCs allowing
musicians to arrange songs, mix beats and record, layer and mix their own
voices. The LightSnake USB provides the easiest method to connect a
microphone to a computer for recording by simply plugging the XLR tip of
the LightSnake into the microphone and the USB end to a PC.

Podcasters can also benefit from the LightSnake. Podcasting, a new form
of communication popularized by Apple’s iPod and former MTV video jockey
Adam Curry, allows anyone to distribute their recordings, such as radio
programs, speeches and interviews to a near limitless audience over the
Internet. The LightSnake’s streamlined design, ease of use and
compatibility with professional quality XLR microphones is ideal for
recording high-quality digital Podcasts.

“The internet and today’s computers have opened the channels for anyone
to create and distribute their own audio masterpiece,” said Larry English,
senior vice president of business development at US Music Corp. “We
developed the LightSnake to provide an easy-to-use, high-quality tool, that
works with any microphone, from budget to top-of-the-line Neumann’s,
allowing customers to easily record their Podcasts, hit-songs or
interviews.”
