Dow Jones Description

For nearly as long as modern music has been created and recorded, Harman Music Group, a Harman International Company (NYSE-HAR) has been designing, engineering, and building the tools capable of enhancing every musician s creativity and performance. In modern music, achieving the perfect guitar tones is just as much an art as writing the music itself. Designing the equipment necessary to shape the sound is almost as much a part of the music as the musicians. Twenty six years ago a native Salt Lake musician realized the demand for just such equipment. He teamed up with an electronics engineer and started a company to provide musicians the means of adding a variety of tone and color to their performances, both live and in the studio. It was this partnership that eventually led to the audio signal processing giant known as the Harman Music Group (HMG). As the company s momentum increased, so did the product line, and with the new product lines came the world s first programmable multi-effect processor employing digital electronics. Since then, HMG has become the industry leader with affordable and innovative effect systems for every musician and every type of music. Harman Music Group now manufactures some of the most prestigious brand names in the music industry including: dbx, DOD, DigiTech, and Lexicon Prolification.
