"Sonic Control applies our corporate mission of 'learn it right the first time' by teaching this other side of the music business which gets virtually no publicity outside the trade press," explained Peter Alexander, CEO of Alexander University, Inc., Sonic Control's parent company.

The first article covers the projected USA market size, customer demographics, and a marketing look corporate buying sprees. "There are several sleeping giants on this list who have everything needed to explode music technology purchasing into the broad consumer markets including expanded distribution outside music stores into BestBuy and Circuit City," noted Alexander.

In 2006, Sonic Control began its financial coverage of the MusicTech 22 to better tell the story of these innovative publicly traded companies that globally impact virtually all music production from CDs to movie soundtracks to classroom education. Using data from The Financials.com, all of the MusicTech 22 stock prices are updated three times daily, and come with charts and historical data. "So the financial fundamentals are covered, now we go to the next step," said Alexander.

To better explain the MusicTech 22 to investors and analysts, the companies have been organized into seven groups: CPUs and Operating Systems, Game Stocks, Music Production Software, Hardware/Integrated Solutions, Distribution and Retail, Media, and Musical Instruments/Sheet Music.

Coverage of the Sonic Control MusicTech 22 includes a news section for individual company press releases and stories, weekly gains and losses after the Friday bell posted on the Sonic Control home page, and commentary. "Sonic Control brings music technology's story to Man Street by giving both balanced financial reporting and a behind-the-scenes look at product development in the spirit of Tracey Kidder's 'The Soul of a New Machine'" said Alexander.

On the Tokyo Stock Exchange, Rolandcorp, TEAC, and Yamaha round out the Sonic Control MusicTech 22.
