PMI Audio Group announced that they have taken over Joemeek, enabling the company to stay in business after the demise of Fletcher Electro-Acoustics, which is out of business.

Alan Hyatt, president of PMI Audio Group: "For over eight years I have created the advertising campaigns, created most of the models feature sets, and funded the projects to market. Many of those Joemeek names like, the Meequalizer, the TrackPak, the Meekbox and the Meekrophone were ours. I have invested a lot in Joemeek and I believe in its value. The Joemeek line will continue but it is going through a re-design."

Allan Bradford (ex CLM Dynamics) is redesigning the entire line. Based in the UK, Mr. Bradford will oversee the launching of high quality designs in 2003. "The original Joemeek gear was good but now it's time for a new generation of products to consolidate the reputation of the brand," said Mr. Bradford. "As designer of the new Meeks, I'm making significant technical improvements in a number of key areas, most notably the Preamp and the EQ."

Joemeek sound will stay the same. The Joemeek line will stay green but with thick aluminum anodized panels and new graphics.

Will it be for the good or the worse? Will the distinctive Joemeek sound survive this surge of technical and commercial overall, we still hope the best for the tenants of "if it sounds good, it is good".
