the external Black PSU power supply.
Audient Company History
While British-based Audient is
fairly new on the scene (1998), the company's founders have quite a respectable pedigree. Co-founder David Dearden has worked
with David Manley (original owner of Manley Laboratories), Eddie Offord (Emerson, Lake and Palmer, Yes), and was involved
in building a custom console and private studio for John Lennon for his Imagine sessions, followed by studios for
George Harrison, Ringo Starr, Gus Dudgeon (producer, Elton John, David Bowie), and Chris Squire of Yes. After three years
with MCI and two years with Soundcraft, David Dearden and Gareth Davies (also from Soundcraft) formed DDA (Dearden Davies
Associates), a maker of high-quality analog consoles. When DDA became part of the Klark Teknik Group, he also designed the
Midas XL200 live sound console and did the initial concept and design of the Midas H1000 console. In 1997 he rejoined with
Gareth Davies to form Audient, whose products are typified by high performance, intelligent ergonomics, and transparent sound
quality. Notable users of Audient gear include Pete Townshend's Eel Pie Studio, England's Royal Academy of Music, and Abbey
Road Studios.
