The Sounding Board v 3.0

Thanks to everyone who came out to join us for The Sounding Board v 3.0. What an incredible day we had!

We were thrilled to feature two Q&A panels packed with fantastic sound artists, plus the ever popular Parade of Carts, where we got to see how the masters of sound make their magic. A delicious kebab lunch gave everyone time to relax and visit, while the CAS / MPSE merch raffle sent a dozen attendees home with some sweet swag.

If you missed it, we hope to see you next year!
