RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – AUGUST 2013: Brazil’s Visom Digital has become the latest of authorized API 1608 dealers. Joining the ranks of other API distributors in South America, Visom began carrying the API product line back in 2012. “After their obvious success with API module products, it was logical that Visom now take on representation of the 1608,” said Gordon Smart, API’s managing director.
Located in Rio de Janeiro, Visom Digital is a working studio, audio technology development center, and audio equipment dealer specializing in high-quality, high-profile sound recording. “We only sell what we use and this makes all the difference in credibility for our people,” said owner, Carlos de Andrade.
With a wide range of clients, Visom Digital caters to everything from independent and major recording studios to TV and radio stations. “As an engineer I have always used API, as a salesman I believe in the product, and as a businessman it’s just a good seller,” said de Andrade of the API product line. Visom stands behind the products they represent, while aiming to understand the needs of their customers and partners in order to offer appropriate solutions. They also offer after-sales services, such as warranty, installation and training.
“For most distributors a line like API is a gem to be catered to with great consideration of its tradition,” said de Andrade. “For Visom, API is not a brand. It is a passion and a bit of our history. We will not just sell API. We will evangelize and educate our clients on the ownership of an important part of professional audio.”
