My Pick: 360 Systems Instant Replay audio player, $2,995 MSRP

What I Like About It: The 360 Systems Instant Replay unit is easy to use and program, and is very reliable. The audio quality is superior. The ability to hit the sound pads for fast, real-time playback of music cues and effects combined with preprogrammed sound sequences really made this unit the only product of its kind. The fast access to trigger pads is a great feature. With the bank scrolling and pound pads, we can create real-time effects while watching the action going on during the show. Some of this needs to be fast, “on your toes” thinking to get the biggest response from the audience. The 360 Instant Replay gives us what we need to make that happen.

Technomedia chooses 360 Systems products for its projects because of their reliability, performance, and the unique applications they fill. I've worked with the company's products since 1988 when it manufactured the industry's most reliable EPROM playback cards. We used those cards in attractions like ET's Adventure, King Kong, Jaws, Horror Make-up Show, and The Wild Wild West Stunt Spectacular. Many of those attractions still have the card cages delivering the sound reliably today.

I Would Change: It would be nice if the unit could play MPEG files and directly connect to the Internet to access files from a remote location.
