Innovations in Rapid Prototyping & Manufacturing for Musical Instruments
Why do the giants of industry like Boeing, Ford, Nike and GE use 3D printing to create new products and redesign old ones? The reason is simple: they make more money. In recent years, Ford produced its 500,000th 3D printed automotive part, while Nike used 3D printing to create the cleats for the Super Bowl. The freedom to create innovative, rapid prototypes, and produce small runs of boutique parts will improve your manufacturing, designs, and most importantly, your bottom line. Meet the leaders in using 3D printing, rapid prototyping, and new alternative materials for musical instrument design.

Global CEO Mastermind Panel: The Future of Cloud & Internet Integration for Musical Instruments
While consumer technology has fostered massive innovation for computer-based musicians, the downsides of the home production can be daunting. Keeping up with the demands of the latest software, creative isolation, and the lack of collaborative energy from traditional recording sessions are just a few of the challenges. The latest innovations in cloud and Internet based products are solving these issues by overcoming the limitations of consumer computer hardware, and empowering musicians to collaborate across platforms, cultures, and even across oceans. A3E will explore best practices for all instrument and gear manufacturers to expand their use of the cloud and the Internet in the years ahead.

Artificial Intelligence: Will Machines Replace Human Musicians?
A3E dares to ask the question: Who will be leading the band in 2025? There are so many reasons to think that music may be so abstract, that only the human mind can master its nuance as a language. At the same time, FaceBook recently shut down their two AI machines who had developed their own language, and Google's DeepMind program has an AI that can contemplate the future. Musical machines are emerging on the horizon.
