M-Audio
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
M-Audio (formerly Midiman), a business unit of Avid Technology, is a manufacturer of a variety of digital audio workstation interfaces, keyboard MIDI controllers, condenser microphones, and studio monitors, among other products. M-Audio is a leading provider of creative tools for computer-centric musicians and audio professionals. Founded in 1988 and self-capitalized until the Avid purchase, the company now has independent offices in the US, Canada, UK, Germany, France and Japan. After Avid purchased M-Audio, Digidesign and M-Audio cooperated to release a version of ProTools tailored for M-Audio sound interfaces (Pro Tools M-Powered), which enables many home musicians to use a cut down version of Digidesign’s flagship product.
