HITCHIN, UK, September 13, 2016 — Sonic Distribution, the UK’s leading independent distributor of pro audio, recording and music technology equipment, announces the release and shipping of a new brand of product, SoundStudio, a line of high-end audio interfaces for live sound.

Drawing on its experience as a distributor and manufacturer since 2002, Sonic has developed SoundStudio as a new brand of I/Os that licenses and leverages infrastructure from SoundGrid®. The first SoundStudio Audio-over-Ethernet SoundGrid audio interfaces are rugged, road-proof stage boxes, equipped with high-performance digitally controlled microphone preamps and ADA converters.

SoundStudio directly meets the audio industry’s demand for top-quality audio interfaces that can connect and network with modern systems and live up to the unique requirements of contemporary live sound environments. To meet those needs, SoundStudio interfaces connect to SoundGrid networks using Ethernet cables and stream audio via the SoundGrid protocol.

A first glance at these boxes will be available at the AES 2016 convention, where there will be 8X8, 16X8, and 24X12 SoundStudio units on display.

Sonic MD James Young comments, “We have been making fundamental changes to the direction of Sonic Distribution over the last year in order to establish a much more efficient setup, with much deeper focus on key partner brands and international distribution. We’re really pleased and excited to announce the SoundStudio brand, and look forward to forging new international distribution channels for these superb products.”
