🎧 Hey Madison Audio Devs — Let’s Connect with Local Companies! 🎧

If you’re working in audio or music software and want to see a stronger local ecosystem, here’s a great place to start. Madison actually has more audio & music-tech companies than most people realize — including both established firms and newer startups:
• Sound Devices (field recorders, embedded DSP, wireless systems — Reedsburg/Madison)
• Broadjam (music licensing, artist tools)
• LÜM (music-discovery / streaming platform for artists)
• SPEAK.Studio (AI + blockchain podcasting tools)
• Singlewire Software (voice and audio-routing applications)
• Sonic Foundry (legacy audio/video software, still here!)

These companies all have software or DSP roots — and they’re right in our backyard.
If anyone here has contacts at these orgs or ideas for how we could collaborate, host a demo night, or run a shared hack session, drop a comment or DM me.

Let’s get Madison back on the map for creative audio engineering — from plug-ins and DSP to live sound, AI mixing, and new synthesis tools.

Our summer break is over and Matt Logan will be presenting on August 14 to introduce a new audio product he has been working on. We will delve into one part of the technology that product is based on:
