Sorry if already posted.  Any chance Salksound will attend again this year?

I was wondering the same.  I don't see them on the exhibitor list.

JIm can confirm, but I don't think that will happen.  The CAF just doesn't have enough traffic to justify the commitment in time, energy, and expense that it takes for a small company to participate, particularly when Jim's at a much larger show in Newport as I type.

There is also (as noted above) more than one show in a relatively short time frame.  So I understand that side of it.  Last year I think they made a huge mistake by holding the show only 5 weeks prior to RMAF and that probably impacted the traffic issue.

One of the advantages with the smaller venues is more time is spent in the rooms by the attendees, thereby giving more time to digest and acclimate, ask questions, poke, prod, etc.

So let's see how Newport goes....
