ECHO DIGITAL CORPORATION
Echo Digital Audio Corporation designs and manufactures DSP based audio software and hardware. The Company is located 10 miles south of Santa Barbara in Carpinteria, CA where it has been in business for 21 years. Echo introduced its first PC sound board over 20 years ago. During the 1980's the Company's audio peripherals and speech compression were standard products in the education and special needs markets with over 100 educational publishers supporting the Echo technology.
Over the past 10 years Echo has developed numerous audio technologies including: multi-track recording products, audio ASICs, reference designs for various DSP-based audio products, DSP system software and drivers, and speech compression algorithms and utilities. Echo has licensed its DSP technology to several semiconductor companies and multimedia industry leaders including: Analog Devices, Hewlett Packard, Asahi (AKM), Motorola, Peavey, Rockwell, Sony, VLSI, S3, ICS and Media Vision.
In 1997 the Company introduced a family of professional digital audio products for multi-channel playback and recording. Echo products deliver cutting-edge solutions for home and studio musicians, the broadcast industry, the home entertainment market, and various OEM manufacturers. This family of products leverages the Company's extensive experience in both the PC market and DSP-based audio technology.
Over the past year Echo has introduced several products that address the need for higher fidelity audio playback and professional audio recording for notebook computers. The latest project in development at Echo is an exciting new product line based on FireWire technology. This new line of firewire products is shipping now and Music Marketing is proud to be distributing this dynamic product in Canada.
