Sonoma Wire Works is honored that RiffWorks™ recording software won a Best in Show Trendsetter award at the winter NAMM Show 2008. RiffWorks was chosen as one of the "hottest" products because of its simple and effective recording interface, online music collaboration capabilities and new social networking site, RiffWorld.com.

"I discovered "RiffWorks" by pure luck and was totally blown away. RiffWorks has given users the ability to easily and intuitively collaborate with other fellow musicians 3,000+ miles away in real time has given me a brand new avenue for musical creativity. That's why RiffWorks was a "no-brainer" for one of my all-time favorite Best in Show picks. Rock on, RiffWorks!" Alan Friedman, musician, NAMM Best in Show panelist, and CPA to the music industry.
