On the 1st, 2nd and 3rd March, the music recording industry will converge on London’s Olympia for Sounds Expo 2007.

This year Digital Village is giving away equipment worth over £65,000 (yes, you read it correctly: sixty-five thousand pounds!). This prize draw is the biggest ever music technology equipment giveaway in the world, and all you have to do to be in with a chance of winning a part of it, is visit Sounds Expo.

Three comprehensive studio packages will be given to three incredibly lucky winners: one on each day of the show. Names will be picked at random from a box of prize draw entries, and there will also be runner-up prizes each day. Cabling and studio furniture is included with all three studios.

So, whether you put it in your diary, write it on a post-it or set a reminder on your phone, just remember to get down to Sounds Expo at London Olympia between the 1st and 3rd March 2007 and visit 630 to be in with a chance of winning.

I know I'm bad about this on the rumour mill BUT...

Audio Media Magazine this month had an add in it that suggested we'd see a new version of Logic at this show, March 2007. It was a retailer ad (GearBox, I believe), and so may be nothing more than hype to sell Logic and Apogee products...BUT...I was wondering if anyone had any other word on this or if I just sit back, shut up and wait

Cheers,
