WELCOME TO UNIVERSAL AUDIO, CIRCA <strong>2012</strong>.<br />
Pioneering audio recording technology for more than 50 years. Founded in 1958 by Bill Putnam<br />
Sr., the <strong>Universal</strong> <strong>Audio</strong> name has been synonymous with innovative recording products since its<br />
inception. A favorite engineer of Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Ray Charles and more, the late<br />
Bill Putnam Sr. was a passionate innovator who is widely regarded as the father of modern recording<br />
— with many of his legendary studio and equipment designs still in use today.<br />
<strong>Universal</strong> <strong>Audio</strong> was re-founded in 1999 by Bill’s sons, James Putnam and Bill Putnam Jr., with two<br />
main goals: to faithfully reproduce classic analog recording equipment; and to design digital recording<br />
tools in the spirit of vintage analog technology. With nearly 80 employees and more than a decade of<br />
rapid growth, UA is today headquartered in Scotts Valley, California — where our classic analog gear<br />
is still hand-built, one unit at a time.<br />
Of course, analog is only half the story. At <strong>Universal</strong> <strong>Audio</strong>, we employ the world’s brightest DSP<br />
engineers and digital modeling authorities to develop our Apollo High-Resolution <strong>Audio</strong> Interface<br />
and award-winning UAD Powered Plug-Ins platform, featuring the most authentic analog emulation<br />
plug-ins in the industry. Software or hardware, every UA product is backed by a 50-year legacy of<br />
innovation, superlative quality, and technical passion.<br />
