LightSnake launches
SoundTech Professional Audio has launched LightSnake, its intelligent instrument-to-PC cable with an embedded analog to digital converter and signal booster. The LightSnake USB enables users to plug a guitar, bass, keyboard or other electronic instrument directly into a PC. The device features digital quality sound input without the need for a sound card, embedded A/D chip technology with audio signal boost to eliminate the need for additional conversion devices, and patented "Live when Lit" technology cable ends that light up when sound is transmitted. The USB 2.0 device ships with a 10-foot shielded cable, a 1/4-inch mini adapter and 1/4-inch male to dual 1/4-inch female splitter, as well as driver software for older non-plug-and-play compliant systems. The LightSnake is priced at $70 and requires Mac OS 9/X (specific system requirements were unavailable).
