Commenting on the appointment, HD Pro Audio's sales director, Andy Huffer, said, "If initial client reaction is anything to go by, KLANG:technologies's 3D IEM processing has the potential to be the next major step in the evolution of stage monitoring, so it's great for HD Pro Audio to once again be at the forefront of bringing new live sound technology to the market.
"With multiple musicians able to control their own mix with standard touch-screen tablet devices plus the revolutionary effect of the 3D processing, bringing greater separation, clarity and, more importantly, reality, to their personal mix, the pioneers at KLANG:technologies have come up with a truly unique addition to the monitor engineer's tools at their disposal."
Huffer continued, "We also see wider applications for KLANG:technologies design and streamed audio, and the new KLANG:quelle PoE Dante headphone amplifier makes distributed hardwired monitoring systems far more flexible. All in all, the perfect fit for us here at HD Pro Audio."
Dr. Pascal Dietrich, founder and chief marketing officer of KLANG:technologies added, "It's all about unrivalled sound transparency for live and studio musicians. Our 3D audio technology lifts your stereo headphones and IEMs to the next level. We are looking into a promising future with HD Pro Audio as a strong partner with extensive industry expertise."
HD Pro Audio is launching KLANG:technologies with two demo days in November. The first is on 9 November at Tour Supply, Manchester M12, followed by Monday 16 at John Henry's Rehearsal Studio 4 in London N7. Anyone wishing to attend, to learn more about 3D IEM and hear the system first hand, should contact Andy Huffer via email at andyh@hdproaudio.co.uk.
