Sound:Check XPO 2019, 17 Years as the Music and Show Industry's Most Important Event in Mexico

The sound:check Xpo trade show in Mexico City will take place on April 28, 29, and 30 at Mexico City's World Trade Center. More than 13,000 m2 of exhibition space contains the newest in audio (recording, installation, and live), video, lighting, stage, power generating plants, DJs and backline, among others; and expects over 22,000 attendees.

Educational offers include Master:class (with Simon Phillips as a special guest this year), the AES Mexico Annual Conference and the sessions called "Tendencias" (Trends).

Demo rooms will be the place for specific and specialty equipment demonstrations and presentations with internationally trending technology.

By contrast, the Harman Auditorium will also be the stage for product presentations that can be heard and seen in full operation, accompanied by technical talks with outstanding industry professionals and activists.

The Auditorium will host three important music figures from Mexico and around the world who will give the already traditional master:classes of sound:check Xpo.

This year the event will have the presence of Simon Phillips (drummer of Toto, Protocol, Mike Oldfield, The Who, Hiromi Trio Project, among many others), Mimi Fox (composer and guitarist with Stevie Wonder, Branford Marsalis and Diana Krall), and Camilo Lara (Instituto Mexicano del Sonido/Mexican Institute of Sound).

One of the most important alliances of sound:check Xpo over the years has been the collaboration with the Audio Engineering Society Mexico (AES) in the making of the AES Annual Conference.

On this occasion this will feature the participation of audio professionals like Sergio Molho (Waters-Storyk Design Group); Jonathan Wyner (mastering engineer; Education Director and Izotope Chief Studio Engineer); Lenise Bent (engineer and producer of CDs like "Aja" by Steely Dan "Breakfast in America" by Supertramp and "Tusk" by Fleetwood Mac); Bruce C. Olson (Olson Sound Design founder); John La Grou (Millenia Media founder); Merlijn van Even (Meyer Sound Senior Technical Support and Education Specialist); Mark Frink (audio engineer of Suzanne Vega, Boston Pops Orchestra, Tony Bennet and KD Lang, among many others); Sergio Díaz (sound designer of the movie "Roma") ... and the AES global president, Nadja Wallaszkovits.

Moreover, as a new opportunity to share experiences, the "Tendencias" (Trends) section will host interesting talks about the projects of different professionals.
