A Yamaha employee for more than five years, serving in various different roles, Abruzzese will now seek to ensure the continued growth of Yamaha within the digital mixer market, and oversee the implementation of further plans for the company’s systems installation business.
“I believe that Yamaha’s support is second to none and clearly we have a digital mixer range that has [been established] for quite a while,” Abruzzese told II. “Looking forward, we’re going to be running Yamaha Commercial Audio Training (YCAT) on a monthly basis, and this will look at not just digital mixers but all our installation products. It won’t be sales-driven – it will be purely for engineers and end users to come in and learn the product.”
