Mic to Monitor South Africa Tour 2010

Hugh Robjohns and Cape Audio College students, past and present

The last two nights, 4th and 5th of October, the Cape Town sound engineering community had the opportunity to attend the Mic to Monitor Tour 2010, a very informative seminar brought to us by SEGMA. It was really great to see so many of our past and current students attending such a workshop. This gave them the opportunity to meet each other, as well as other working professionals in the local sound industry, from film to music to radio. Students were even able to use the breaks to chat and rub shoulders with high profile international engineers Graham Boswell, Peter Nash and Hugh Robjohns, who were the speakers at the event.
