Trott Tapped
as AKG President

Andy Trott, president of Harman’s mixer business Soundcraft Studer with facilities in the United Kingdom and Switzerland, has been named president of AKG, which is headquartered in Vienna.

Stefan Gubi, who headed AKG for the past five years, will depart at the end of June, returning to a senior post in the telecom industry, where he worked prior to joining AKG.

“Having a background as a digital engineer and a recording musician, I am absolutely thrilled at the prospect of leading another legendary name in the audio industry,” Trott said. “AKG has always been a brand I have revered, and having now met with many of the team in Austria, I can see many synergies with the new product development programs we have been pursuing in Soundcraft Studer.”
