The following section was removed from the article, with the justification being that it was "vandalism". I do not agree with that assertion, although I do think it is POV. I mention it because the user who made the edit has removed anti-Creative/anti-Tomshardware content from several articles with the same "vandalism" excuse:
Turtle Beach soundcards could not be found in Singapore at all in the late 90's especially the Montego series, due to local brand Creative putting pressure on store owners and threatening to cut off supplies of Soundblaster cards if they sold a Turtle Beach product.‹The template Talkfact is being considered for merging.› [citation needed]
Fair use rationale for Image:Turtlebeach.png
editImage:Turtlebeach.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 05:03, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
AudioTron's place in history?
editThere was a claim in the article that AudioTron was the "world's first network audio receiver". I softened it in several ways:
- I changed network to "Internet"; There are networks of all kinds (see Radio Network), so it needs to be specific, and to avoid jargon (e.g. "packet-switched digital networks") I'll just say "Internet".
- I added the word "standalone". Any computer receiving audio over a network is a network audio receiver, and that's been happening since the early 90s (see NAS), and VoIP appliances started to come out in the mid-90s, but they have another function (transmitting).
- I changed "world's first" to "one of the first". I can't find the "world's first" claim anywhere on the Internet except obvious quotes of this Wikipedia article. Not even the press releases of Voyetra or its suppliers made that claim: http://tech.dir.groups.yahoo.com/group/audiotron/message/110 http://www.cirrus.com/en/company/releases/P146.html
Dubious claims, wrong dates - this article is messed up
editIn the info box someone stated it was founded in 2008, in the text 1985, although on their website it clearly says 1975, and on Crunchbase as well. Also, no source is given to the dubious claim that their first product was a graphical user interface (presumably back in the 70's)? I'll fix the dates but as for the rest, this article needs some serious work. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 185.31.142.251 (talk) 12:55, 11 November 2017 (UTC)
Hardware Synths
editVoyetra produced the Octave Cat, as well as the Voyetra Eight. Shouldn't that be in the article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.173.131.37 (talk) 05:33, 8 October 2018 (UTC)
If anyone is interested
editThe company is more of a gaming manufacturer than some of the older hardware listed on the page. I am going to create a new page for list of products similar to this one for Nokia. It is in draftspace here. It is an open draft so anyone can edit. Please feel free to update what you can and we can make it live once it gets more details. --CNMall41 (talk) 02:14, 21 December 2018 (UTC)
