Universal Audio is a designer and manufacturer of audio signal processing hardware and software aimed at the home and professional recording studio as well as the live sound and broadcasting fields. The current incarnation of the company was re-established in 1999 by brothers Jim Putnam and Bill Putnam, Jr., sons of the original founder Bill Putnam. Universal Audio was merged with Kind of Loud Technologies in order to achieve two goals: "reproduce classic analog recording equipment designed by their father and his colleagues" and "research and design new recording tools in the spirit of vintage analog technology." [ [http://www.uaudio.com/company/history/index.html Universal Audio History] ]
Today, Universal Audio continues in the tradition established by Bill Putnam, replicating modern versions of the classic UREI and Teletronix designs. Universal Audio also creates software plugins for audio signal processing. They've garnered several TEC Award nominations and a FutureMusic Platinum award for their work. Putnam's son Bill, Jr. serves as CEO.
