Hal Leonard has announced that as of August 1, iZotope and Audient products have been added to the company’s MI Distribution division catalog. Both companies are leaders in their respective categories and great additions to the growing line of brand-name audio products available through Hal Leonard.
iZotope is a leader in intelligent audio technology for mixing, mastering and audio repair software for audio and post production applications in the studio, at home, and in the classroom. They offer a full line of audio programs, plug-ins and an innovative portable recording device called Spire. iZotope products complement many of the digital audio workstations in Hal Leonard’s catalog, including Pro Tools, Studio One, Cubase, and more. All software programs are sold exclusively as downloadable codes through Xchange Market Platform. Qualified schools and institutions will be offered special pricing on iZotope products.
Audient is a British-based company that designs and manufactures professional audio equipment, including large-format audio mixing consoles and small digital recording interfaces. All interfaces feature Audient’s renowned console mic preamps and class-leading digital converters, delivering the audio performance of an Audient console on your desktop. A strong supporter of independent music dealers, Audient is not available at several national chain stores, making their brand a valuable addition to independent dealers’ audio/recording department offerings. Pete Townsend, legendary guitarist for the Who & a DIY home recording legend, is among many endorsers of Audient products.
“Our sales team is stoked to offer our dealers products from these industry leaders,” says Brad Smith, Vice-President of MI Products at Hal Leonard. “The time is right for us to widen our selection as our software and audio sales grow. The consumers are everywhere – every channel, every space, and they understand the application of a great plug-in or hi-end interface and how it can impact your sound. It’s a great time to be a music dealer selling audio.”
Hal Leonard’s agreement with iZotope covers the United States and Canada. Their agreement with Audient is for the United States. Interested retailers can call the Hal Leonard E-Z Order Line at 1-800-554-0626 for more information.
