IK Signs With Hal Leonard

Doug Lady, Hal Leonard’s senior vice president of sales, and Gary Kerzner, IK Multimedia’s managing director, recently negotiated an agreement for Hal Leonard to distribute IK Multimedia music production software and hardware to music stores in North America. The distribution deal went into effect May 1.

IK products recreate famous analog and tube gear, such as guitar amplifiers and stompboxes, in software form. The company has software partnerships with Ampeg, Fender and Jimi Hendrix.

“Like print music, computer music/recording software is among the fastest-growing and most profitable segments of the music industry,” Lady said. “We’re pleased to help our retailers immediately boost their bottom lines by making it easy for them to stock and sell IK’s amazing products.” MI
