Media production products manufacturer
Avid Technology (USA) has signed a letter of intent to purchase Deiter’s highly-regarded
audio console company, Euphonix! A press release about the purchase
letter was made available by Avid Technology (a copy of which is linked here
from Euroinvestor news). The Avid press release does not mention Dieter,
but Mr. Meier is the sole owner of the Mountain View, California-based Euphonix
company.

There is no official word about this on
the Euphonix website, but this fabulous bio of Deiter is available there:

Euphonix consoles are used to “command
and control” many creative software applications, including Avid’s
famous ProTools audio mixing software. Yello use Euphonix and ProTools in
their recordings, so this technology purchase is actually a perfect match.
Cheers,
