Looks interesting.
I'll have a watch later on. Thanks

Finally had look, nicely done. There's a lot of history there.

Except, it was all Arai and completely left out Matsumoku's house brand Westone and the innovative work done there. Also the connection with Tom Presley, et al, and St Louis Music. That's another chapter in and of itself worthy of its own history video methinks.

- IGNORE/DELETE -
another double post (second today)

Crusty
I'm seeing failed connection messages, stuttering, and forced re-login's. Is there something going on at your end or something weird with my connection?

I've seen this video some time back. He had a bad link so I put a redirect from matsumoku.net back to matsumoku.org.

I've reported the failed connections in the past. Their response is always "Youi're on shared hosting and resources are used by all the clients on that host" and then the usual upsell for dedicated hosting, to $54 a month which I can't afford. I suspect someone else sharing the server is pushing SQL pretty hard. Not much I can do. It seems to be sporadic. Made it real fun to update new catalogs. The connection errors seem to be specific to the forums.

Seems OK today, so far.
Nothing we can't live with.
Thanks

Interesting stuff! Late bloomer and that's how the legacy lives on!

I realized we didn't have a link to westone.info on our index/landing page so it has been added.
