Dere West moves from Tannoy to Rycote.
Rycote Microphone Windshields has appointed Derek West, formerly sales director with Tannoy Ltd, as head of sales and marketing and research and development for both its Rycote and Lightwave brands. The company, based in Stroud, Gloucestershire, together with sister company Lightwave Audio Systems, based in Vista, California, is a world leader in microphone windshield and shockmount products for both professional and semi-professional use.

Commenting on the appointment Rycote MD, Vivienne Dyer, said:"I have known Derek for several years and, during this time, have wanted to bring his experience into the company. Following Rycote’s purchase of Lightwave last year, we needed to increase our strength in the areas of distribution and product development, and I am sure he will prove a valuable asset to the company."
