Filter is back with more news than you can poke a stick at. We have lots of DiGiCo and Nexo details, including info on the DiGiCo SD7 concept shown at PLASA in September 2007.

In addition we have some new products from Quest Engineering (QMotion) and two awesome new additions to the RCF Art Series of powered speakers; the 522a & 525a. These guys are power-packed, yet light for their weight, and will surely impress. We hope you enjoy reading Filter 13.
