API, manufacturer
of high-end analog processors and audio production consoles,
is pleased to announce the creation of a scholarship program
designed to foster creativity and excellence for the pro audio
industry's next generation of sound engineers.
The scholarship will be available to students enrolled or
accepted in the prestigious sound engineering programs at
the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor, the University of Massachusetts-Lowell,
and New York University. Each year, API will award the API
Visionary Scholarship to three students in the amount of $2,000
per student. Details for qualifying and application forms
can be found on API's website, http://www.apiaudio.com
Recognizing that the skills learned on a
state-of-the-art analog console transfer transparently into
the digital realm, whereas the reverse is seldom true, the
programs at these three universities have centered many of
their
courses, seminars, and independent projects on the API Vision
surround sound console. The API Vision consoles' design allows
for simultaneous stereo and surround mixing while maintaining
its 'all discrete' analog audio signal
path, providing a unique opportunity for students to focus
their listening skills on the highest quality of analog audio
available.
"So many great engineers have produced
so much great music over the years," said Larry Droppa,
president of API Audio. "API is honored to be part of
this ongoing process, and we're committed to enabling today's
young engineering talent to flourish, especially as they gain
their education. By encouraging projects and experimentation
on analog consoles, we can further the audio process by, not
only providing the equipment to the industry but also, providing
additional incentive to reach a little further, listen a little
more earnestly, and create a little more freely."
Automated Processes, Inc. remains the leader
in analog recording gear, with the Vision surround production
and Legacy Series recording consoles, the DSM Series rack-mounted
mixers, and the classic line of modular signal
processing equipment.
