Apple Computer will join the ranks of Perry Como and Joni Mitchell when the company picks up a Grammy Wednesday evening. The company is being awarded a technical Grammy by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences for its contributions to the music industry and recording field. -- The Academy pointed to Apple’s long work with computerized music, going back to the introduction of the Macintosh computer, saying the company “is considered the leading architect in bringing computer technology into the studio and revolutionizing the way music is written, produced, mixed, recorded and creatively imagined.”
If any computer company deserves it, they do. Practically every major studio in the world has a Mac (usually with Pro Tools on it) sitting at their recording console. No other manufacturer has come close to advancing digital recording technology. Yeah Apple!
