Founded in 1973,[1] Raindirk Audio Ltd is a manufacturer of high-end, pro-audio equipment used in both recording studios and live sound reproduction. Raindirk's first console was sold to former Deep Purple singer Ian Gillan's Kingsway Studios.[2] All products are designed by Cyril Jones.
Whilst not maintaining as high a profile as competitors like Solid State Logic, Automated Processes Inc and AMS Neve, Raindirk consoles have been used on artists as diverse as Pavarotti and Max Bygraves.[3]
Competitors
Historically, Raindirk has produced high-end, large-format, professional recording studio consoles. As such their main competitors have been:-
- AMEK (No longer manufactured)
- Neve
- API
- Euphonix
- Harrison
- Solid State Logic
- Studer
However, in recent years Raindirk has focussed on high-end live sound applications. A recent development has been the design of high specification DI boxes and microphone pre-amps for use in DAW studios.
