IBMA: Kel Audio Interview

Here’s another video interview from IBMA. This time John interviews Kelly Dueck of Kel Audio. Kelly is a banjo player turned microphone manufacturer. His microphones are in use both on stage and in the studio throughout the bluegrass world.

I’ve got several Kel Audio microphones in my own studio and have used them on several projects now. These mics are affordable and clean sounding. Grasstowne is using them on stage, which Kelly discusses in the video.

The interview gives you some background on Kelly himself, a quick overview of his mics, and his perspective on being at IBMA for the first time as a vendor. Run time is 3:17.
