The monthly seminar series is designed to provide sound operators, engineers, designers, installers and consultants with an invaluable insight into key engineering and design issues, based on Cadac's extensive design expertise. The seminars are led by sound and console design expert Tony Waldron, formerly head of sound at London's Royal National Theatre.The Cadac Sound Seminars for 2002 reflect Cadac's corporate philosophy of sharing information and providing an educational framework, covering the spectrum of professional sound topics. The popular 2001 programme included a series of presentations in Luton, as well as a number of regional events.
The Cadac team staged seminars during the 2001 PALA show in Singapore, hosted by Sennheiser Asia. Entitled ‘Quality by Design’, these took place in front of a specially invited audience of around 20 sound designers and consultants. Sebastian Wong of Sennheiser Asia commented: "The feedback from participants was very positive. It is the Cadac team's willingness to share their experiences that makes the seminars most interesting and useful." Cadac seminars were also held in the US - at Masque Sound and Recording, ProMix, and Sound Associates in New York - and in Stockholm, alongside the LLB show in October.
