Happy Birthday VI-Control!

by

 

VI-Control is a teenager!  Founded 13 years ago today (okay, yesterday, actually … oops!) by Frederick Russ as a home for media composers and sample developers alike.  This has become the place where people gather to discuss composing and virtual instruments.  Not only has VI-Control become an incredible knowledge base, but some major companies have started here as well.  I think I speak for everyone in thanking Frederick for taking it upon himself to start this forum, and of course, wishing VI-C a happy birthday!
