The Neumann name — which has graced the audio industry for nine decades now — has always been synonymous with world class microphones. In this issue, Neumann President Wolfgang Fraissinet tells us how his company is making major shifts into new markets, partly signalled by its first pair of headphones released in January this year. Also this issue, Leslie Braithwaite (Cardi B, Beyoncé, Ariana Grande) shares his secrets on mixing the sound of modern hip hop and R&B, dBTechnologies’ flagship Vio L212 line array lands in Bali, and you’ll find reviews on the UAD Apollo X interface, Allen & Heath SQ7 console, and Arturia Drumbrute Impact drum synth.
