"The
Sound Summit has proven to be an excellent event for all involved," says
Karl Winkler, VP of Sales and Service at Lectrosonics. "At the events in
Chicago, Atlanta and New York last year, we enjoyed sharing ideas and learning

Now, with the addition of K-Tek we are adding even more exciting, professional
solutions for production sound professionals. I'm very grateful to Mark Johnson
and Full Sail University for offering to host the event."

with our customers face-to-face. We learn just as much from customers as they
do from us manufacturers.”
