Calrec has named Karl Chapman as international sales manager. In his new role, which is effective immediately, Chapman will primarily be concentrating on EMEA territories.
After having spent many years with Neve, Mitsubishi Pro-Audio and Amek, Chapman joined Harman Professional Solutions in 1995. He initially worked for Soundcraft as European sales manager before becoming EMEA senior sales manager for Studer.
Calrec says Chapman’s deep knowledge of the television and radio broadcast industries will further expand the company’s footprint in both sectors, in addition to assisting the entire Calrec team with the overall business.
Calrec recently introduced the Type R range of customizable, expandable systems specifically for radio broadcasters.
