| Ibiza’s DC10 to be shut for one year, possibly forever Posted: 06 Oct 2008 10:12 PM CDT DC10 club in Ibiza has been fighting an uphill battle with the island's authorities for the whole season, but last week the club's future seemed bleak after a council meeting in Sant Josep slapped the owners with a €300,000 fine and a one year closure.

Instead, the focus was on plug-ins, microphones, hardware effects, monitors and the like. While the toys on display may not be as glamorous as flashy tone generators, this gear is an equally important component of a producers arsenal. Here are some of the announcements that caught our attention. |
