Dubai distribution of DPA Microphones lines is now being handled by Melody House Musical Instruments as part of a rebranding process that will see Melody House complement its MI roots by moving further into pro audio.
‘Melody House will be a really good partner for us in Dubai as they have a well established network,’ says DPA Regional Sales Manager, Michael Trolle. ‘As they are soon opening a retail shop, this is also an opportunity for us to grow our instrument mic market, together with Melody House. The other high-end brands that they represent are a very good match with DPA.’
Melody House’ Greg Cargopoulos is familiar with DPA microphones from his own experience: ‘I have been working as a sound engineer for many years, often on corporate events where there are several headband and lavalier microphones on stage at one time, and DPA mics have been a life-saver in many situations,’ he says. ‘The thing I like about these microphones is how the frequency response is so neutral. The design is always to be as neutral as possible, rather than have a coloured frequency response. This, coupled with a flat-response loudspeaker system, is the way to get maximum gain-before-feedback, as it gives the engineer maximum control.
Melody House is now concentrating on raising the profile of DPA in Dubai, and can already offer a substantial stock of demo mics for all applications. The company wlll also be dealing with DPA customers across the UAE.
