newcomers the importance of what AES does for the community and how to officially
become a member on the AES website. Micheal mentioned the upcoming AES events,
such as the significance of teamwork workshop, Warm audio's gear event, and Sylvia
Massey's microphone event. The group took some time to thank Trevor and Jimmy for
their time as officeholders in the CRAS AES chapter and to encourage them as they
head towards internship.
The topic then turned to the question of the week, which was
"In the last year, what was your best purchase for under $100?". The group spent lots
