Hmm, than maybe it's indeed just a matter of how this term is
generally used. I admit, that I approach it very naively by just
looking at the meaning of both single words, "pro" and "audio", but if
"pro audio" indeed is meant to describe something different from
"sound design" (which also is a word combination, that could mean
anything, if one is honest) then I guess I will just (have to) accept
that nomenclature. Which isn't really a big problem for me, to make
that clear. I just would like to point out, that there are other
"pros" than just the "real" pro audio people, and that they have as
high, but a bit different, needs regarding quality of soft- and
hardware, as the engineers.
