Cadac Audio Ltd US and Canada has secured premises for its sales, distribution and service operations in Hoboken, New Jersey. These house new North American division’s sales, distribution and service operations, headed by General Manager Paul Morini. Currently under refurbishment, the new HQ will come ‘online’ by the end of August 2014.
As part of the move, the company has announced the appointment of industry veteran console engineer Mitch Mortenson as Technical Support Manager. He is a recognised pro audio industry authority in the US, having spent 20 years in recording, sound touring engineering, and technical sales, including nine years in front line technical support roles for Midas consoles in North America.
Morini, who worked alongside Mortenson at Midas, describes him as ‘uniquely qualified within our industry to take on this role for Cadac’: ‘He is long associated in the US as Midas’ technical trouble-shooter, in providing pre- and post-sales support, and as the in-the-field concert touring tech; as well as establishing comprehensive training programmes. He is going to be a very major asset to our new operations in the US and Canada.’
‘After a two year break working outside of the industry, it is exciting to be coming back to join such a fantastic team – audio and at this time with the release of such a visionary product as the CDC eight console, with the potential to put the brand at the very forefront of the live sound industry,’ Mortenson says.
