NAMM 2008
Steinberg looks back at a highly successful 2008 NAMM Show. The most important US music instruments industry trade show took place from January 17 to January 20 2008, with thousands of musicians, producers and journalists congregating at the Anaheim Convention Center in Orange County, California. This year Steinberg presented a new entry-level version of Cubase, 
Cubase Essential 4. The release of the SDK for VST3 generated enormous interest throughout both the audio industry and the media. Special VIP shows at the Steinberg booth pulled in scores of visitors taking advantage of the opportunity to take a peak at how some of the most respected professionals work with Steinberg software.
We’ve put together some stills to offer a taste of the many presentations and demos at the Steinberg booth during the show:
