Sound Devices Celebrates 12 Years
Back in 1998, when Pentium II’s with Windows 95 and PowerPC Macs with System 8 were the latest tech, the idea for Sound Devices was born. Since then, Sound Devices mixers, recorders, and related products have become a worldwide standard for field production audio.
“When we started Sound Devices in 1998, we had no products, customers, or vendors,” says Jim Koomar, co-founder and Director of Sales. “Delivering our first product, the MP-1 mic preamp, gave us an opportunity to start a conversation with our customers. That conversation is continuing, with many of the same customers. With these relationships we gain insight into where we need to be to respond to changing production techniques and technologies.”
Sound Devices offices will be closed on Friday, July 2, in honor of our “Founder’s Day”. The company is also closed on Monday, July 5.
