New Products
Novation Automap 3 Pro
Automap 3 Pro now supports multiple hardware devices, allowing any of Novation’s hardware controllers to be stacked within the Automap server. Mutiple Novation controllers can then work side-by-side to access separate parameters on different plug-ins simultaneously. Another key new feature is the ability to drag-and-drop parameters between controls, making re-assignment easy. Also new is Auto-View, which when activated automatically displays Automap 3 Pro onscreen as soon as a hardware control is touched, and then hides the GUI after release. Automap 3 is available to all existing Automap users from www.novationmusic.com for $29.95. A reduced-feature Automap 3 Standard is also available as a free download from the Website, and will include a few of Automap 3 Pro's features, but will not support multiple devices. Booth #6474, Hall A

CharterOak Acoustic Devices SCL1
CharterOak Acoustic Devices makes its NAMM debut and will demonstrate the new SCL1 discrete stereo compressor/limiter. The unit employs all-discrete electronics and is capable of providing a constant output level regardless of input level or frequency. The unit delivers extremely fast attack times without overcompensation. The SCL-1 is designed to fit any standard 19-inch rack. The unit may be used as a stereo unit or as two independent limiters in the dual mode. Booth #1861, Hall E

RapcoHorizon Dominator Cables
The RapcoHorizon Company is showcasing its high-end Dominator cable line at Winter NAMM 2009. The Dominator SilverFlex line features instrument and microphone cables in two different configurations. The entire SilverFlex line is jacketed with a rugged TechFlex outer skin and a clear inner conductor. SilverFlex Series speaker cables are available in 12- and 10-gauge sizes with bare-annealed copper conductors, all of which are silver-plated and “mega-stranded” for enhanced performance and lower capacitance. The original Dominator "Gold Tuned" Series offers four individual types of wire. The Dominator Gold Tuned guitar cables provide performers with the ability to choose their own distinctive sound. These are manufactured using the four different types of Dominator wire and include additional components inside each of the connectors that “tune” the output of the guitar to the input of an amplifier or effects pedal.
