Day One: October 5, 2006
Welcome to AES!
After some drizzles and a somewhat wet start yesterday, the 121st AES Convention in San Francisco looks to be one of the best shows in years. In addition to the 400-plus exhibitors jammed into Moscone Center and ready for Friday's 10 a.m. opening, the show's excellent lineup of sessions, papers and technical tours provide an astonishing array of opportunities for showgoers to keep up on the latest in audio technology. On the social side, tonight is packed with parties, concerts and fun events sponsored by manufacturers and local organizations, making this one AES you're sure to remember. Oh, and according to all indications, the forecast calls for clear skies tonight and through the weekend, so kick back and enjoy your stay in our favorite city.
