Industry | Mixing consolesStudio hardware |
Number of employees | 15 |
Founded | 1997 |
Audient was founded in 1997 by David Dearden and Gareth Davies, previously of Soundcraft. They had been founding partners of DDA - a company known for designing good value mixing console in the 1980s and 1990s. The company was later purchased by Simon Blackwood (formerly of Focusrite/Novation) in the winter of 2013. The company carried on that philosophy, producing professional equipment at a mid-range price. Flagship designs include the ASP8024, a large format inline mixing console with up to 80 inputs on the 36 channel version. Recent development has seen the company branch out into the audio interface market with the addition of the iD22 followed by the iD14 and iD4. The company is based in Herriard (near Basingstoke, Hampshire, England) but has employees in Bulgaria and throughout the UK. A widespread global distribution network is in place outside of the United Kingdom, with Audient taking British distribution in-house as of July 2010.
