42Displaying a lineup of products compatible with DanteWorld debut of the “NUAGE” DAW system■What was the concept behind your exhibition this time? “The concept behind our exhibition was “All to the NEXT”. In addition to the Yamaha, CL series, NEXO and Steinberg brands, we proposed Yamaha Group total solutions. Specifi-cally, we demonstrated that the world of digital audio has reached a new stage by connecting these new products to the “Dante” digital audio network and monitoring and controlling audio via a network.”■What kind of exhibition did you set out to provide?“We devised ways to expertly demonstrate the combined strengths of the Yamaha Group. We expanded the number of segments from 20 to 25 this year and stopped dedicating segments solely to one brand. We thought that by doing so, we could present a clearer overall picture of workflows through total solutions. We demonstrated that by showing the overall picture, we can meet a wide range of needs from recording to music production and live venue use.”■Which of your exhibits got a particularly good reception?“The Dante-compatible total solutions obviously got a good reception, and among those the Yamaha-Steinberg co-developed ‘NUAGE’ system solution for post-production was extremely well-received. This is the first joint product between us since Yamaha incorporated Steinberg as a group company, and it made its debut on the global stage at this Inter BEE exhibition. Because of a lack of large special purpose controllers in the past, I feel that there are strong needs for a system for business use.■What do you think visitors are looking for?“Rather than thinking about video and audio separately, recently there has been greater demand for solutions combin-ing both and, in fact, NUAGE is a product that meets such needs. While its main function is audio editing, editing can be performed while synchronizing with video. We gave a demon-stration of audio editing together with video at the booth.”“Such needs have intensified because ways to combine audio and video have increased. For example, some live music club customers not only stage concerts, they also record the concert and sell it as a package product or distribute the music with a video via a network. Thinking of the various ways this could be developed, there is a need for systems to integrally process audio and video.”
