UK - Industry specialist Mike Mann has joined professional audio distributor Autograph Sales in the newly-created role of technical manager, providing pre- and post-sales support to customers as well as technical training to Autograph Sales staff. Mann will have particular responsibility for Meyer Sound MAPP Online and SIM software, Clear-Com Matrix Plus intercom systems and BSS Soundweb DSP networking systems. He will also be working closely with customers and consultants on larger projects to provide technical solutions, handholding new system owners and troubleshooting in the field.

Mann has amassed a wide range of experience since he started his career as a sound technician at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, in 1987. Particularly relevant to his new role is a stint running the European office for Meyer Sound, whose high quality loudspeakers are Autograph Sales' longest-standing product line. In his most recent role as a freelance technical writer and photographer, Mann has covered many of Autograph Sales' key projects. His career has also included positions with theatrical console manufacturer Cadac Electronics, Soundcraft Electronics and Drake Electronics.
