ADK Microphones - What if a couple of musician/recording engineers created a microphone company? And what if they aren't just ordinary "artist types". What if one of them, Brian Hutchison, is a Master Steinway Technician, who has not only performed live with such people as Jazz Artist Eddie Harris, and Prog. Band Cairo, but also has worked both sides of the glass - producing, arranging, and performing on, as well as engineering Guitar Virtuoso James Byrd's most recent CDs. And the other, Larry Villella, started his recording career by spending five nights in a row in 1971 recording Jazz Legend Chick Corea Live at the Jazz Workshop in Boston. And who has been known to follow Vladimir Horowitz' Concert Steinway to various west coast cities for the chance to do live recordings. And whose 30 year microphone collection led to the ADK Challenge. What would they do differently in creating a microphone company? Answer: make affordable microphones that actually sound like the vintage mics we love!! Call it flavor, call it color, call it warmth, or even call it euphonics! ADK replicates the timbre of the great Austrian, Danish and German Microphones of the past, with hand-assembled capsules and modern electronics. We invite you to let your ears decide! (view less)
