For people up and down the East Coast and around the world, there is no more vaunted place to be on New Year's Eve than New York City's Times Square. Whether you waited out in the cold for a chance to watch the evening's events unfold firsthand or you are one of the over a billion viewers tuning in on TV, nothing rings in the new year quite like the big ball dropping in the city that never sleeps.

Powersoft, a world-leading manufacturer of professional power amplifiers, has appointed Gino Pellicano to the newly created position of Applications Engineer. In his new role, Pellicano will report to Kurt Metzler, U.S. Sales Director, Powersoft, effective immediately. The position increases Powersoft's outreach and support capacities for its branded rackmount amplifiers as the global company looks to build on its engineering capabilities across multiple regions. Pellicano brings deep and diverse industry knowledge to the new position, with years of experience as an A/V systems and acoustical consultant, design engineer and application specialist for companies including Eastern Acoustic Works (EAW), Acoustic Dimensions, and Technomedia Solutions.

In today's tech-driven economy, more and more entrepreneurs, contractors, and full-time employees are able to work outside of a traditional office setting. Yet for some, having a designated workspace with some of the amenities available in a large office building remains a valuable asset. Co-working space Cross Campus makes that possible, renting desk space to individuals or small offices to companies for startup-friendly prices. At their flagship Downtown LA campus, Cross Campus hosts talks and seminars in their event space by luminaries ranging from Elon Musk to President Obama. A recent start-up company themselves, Cross Campus's early success led them to desire a more powerful sound system for their events with advanced digital controls and networking. They reached out to Matt Grossman of Hollywood Sound Systems, who designed an upgrade that included Powersoft's Ottocanali 8k4 DSP+D amplifier.

DK Audio Video is a company on a mission. "A lot of schools, churches, and events centers in Colorado are pretty far behind in terms of audio technology," says owner Lucas Lafferty. "We're really trying to raise the bar and show people how far the technology has come." This summer, Lafferty got a call from Michael Pickering, Music Director at the Community College of Aurora. The college's 140-seat Larry D. Carter Theater was in desperate need of an audio upgrade. Working with Marshank Group representative CJ Lewis, Lafferty put together a brand new sound reinforcement package for the venue featuring Powersoft's powerful X4 amplifier.

Powersoft has announced that Italian speaker manufacturer, Eighteen Sound is the latest transducer specialist to recognize the company's patented IPAL technology.

SPL Systems has been a provider of top level audio services for over 20 years Owner Bill Forbes says that while the company once handled retail and installation as part of their business, they grew to focus exclusively on live sound. As a result, Forbes and his team spend a lot of time transporting gear to jobs that can range from state fairs to corporate events. Looking to overhaul their amplifier rig in pursuit of superior audio performance, next generation DSP and networking, and a more compact amplifier rig, SPL Systems turned to industry-leading power amplifier manufacturer Powersoft and their X and K Series amplifiers.

Powersoft has announced that it is sponsoring the multi-platform PAcalculate app, which runs on mobile devices such as Android, iOS, Windows-Phone, Blackberry — including smartphones and tablets.

Powersoft, a world-leading manufacturer of professional power amplifiers, is furthering its commitment to providing cutting-edge training for users of its industry-leading amplification technology with a series of free webinars. New webinars, which are being presented in conjunction with ProAudio-Central.com, provide audio professionals with opportunities to learn best practices from experts in the field and get the most out of their Powersoft gear.
