Aphex has promoted Jim Bailey to the position of General Manager. The move follows his success in product development, including the recent Aphex USB 500 Rack and USB Microphone X, along with his management abilities.
‘Aphex is firing on all cylinders,’ says Aphex Chairman and CEO, David Wiener. ‘We have worked really hard over the past two years, adapting, evolving and expanding our Burbank and Salt Lake City operations to position us for the next phase of growth. A key step is putting Jim in the position of General Manager, where we can fully utilise his unique skill set in leading the product and operations teams.’
After working as a successful engineer, producer and studio operator in Los Angeles, Bailey put that experience into pro audio design manufacture. His motto is ‘get the sound that’s in the artist’s head’.
Prior to joining Aphex as Director of Product Development, Bailey held product management positions at Tascam and Avid, where he worked between customers, sales force, marketing team and engineering.
