AES U.S. Members Get Special Apple Savings
U.S. Audio Engineering Society (AES) members will receive special savings of up to 17% on the latest Apple products and accessories, according to a new pilot initiative AES has launched in conjunction with the Apple Association Member Purchase Program.
AES President Jim Anderson, also a producer and Professor/Chair at the Clive Davis Department of Recorded Music at NYU’s Tisch School, notes, “We are exploring the possibility of expanding the program to other territories as well.”
For the time being, AES U.S. members visiting the Apple Store link at http://www.aes.org will find a number of exclusive options including: special member pricing on Apple and third-party products, exclusive promotions, complimentary shipping on all orders over $50, free engraving on all new iPod models, Mac customization and flexible business financing options.
“The AES is continually seeking new ways to benefit our members,” Anderson says. “When Apple approached us with an opportunity to provide special pricing on software and hardware from one of the most ubiquitous tool groups at use in contemporary audio production/post-production we immediately recognized a valuable added service.”
