TELEFUNKEN Partners with Platinum Sound for Private In-Studio Demonstrations
An elite manufacturer and top New York City studio have teamed up once again.
TELEFUNKEN Elektroakustik, the renowned manufacturer of vacuum tube-based microphones, announced that it is partnering up with Platinum Sound Recording Studios in midtown. Together, they have developed a private in-studio demonstration spot for servicing all New York City and tri-state area dealers and clients.
Interested clients and authorized dealers can schedule private listening sessions of TELEFUNKEN microphones at Platinum Sound, taking full advantage of their world-class tracking environment. The entire TELEFUNKEN product line will be available for demonstration in the facility’s Studio J, which comes complete with an 80-channel SSL J9000.
Customers and dealers can schedule a private demonstration by emailing nyc@t-funk.com, or by contacting TELEFUNKEN by phone at 860.882.5919.
Their relationship officially kicked off with a listening party at Platinum, held the weekend of the 135th AES Convention in NYC. TELEFUNKEN demonstrated an array of it’s microphones to a group of industry professionals, recording enthusiasts and students via a live in-studio performance by producer Matty Amendola and singer Katie Lee with her backing band.
The event marked the debut of TELEFUNKEN’s DD5 Dynamic Drum Microphone Sets, which were employed on the drum set. TELEFUNKEN’s R-F-T and Diamond Series microphones were also on the case.
Is this a trend that will continue to unfold? In January, SweetSounds Studio downtown announced that it was serving as official NYC showroom for Legacy Audio monitors, in a partnership dubbed SoHo Audio source.
