Aphex has announced the appointment of Jim Bailey to the position of general manager, with the announcement made by Aphex chairman/CEO David Wiener.
Bailey’s offers extensive experience in product development, illustrated by the recent debuts of Aphex models such as the USB 500 Rack and USB Microphone X, as well as management talent.
“Aphex is firing on all cylinders. We have worked really hard over the last two years, adapting, evolving and expanding our Burbank and Salt Lake City operations to position us for the next phase of growth,” Wiener states. “A key step is putting Jim in the position of General Manager, where we can fully utilize his unique skill set in leading the product and operations teams.”
After many years as a engineer, producer and studio operator in Los Angeles, riding the transition from analog to digital, Bailey ultimately came into pro audio manufacturing to put that experience into new products.
Prior to joining Aphex as director of product development, Bailey held product management positions at TASCAM and Avid, where he acted as the interface between the customer, sales force, marketing team, and engineering.
