Sean has developed several award-winning audio products in his career working for several professional audio companies - the most notable being legendary British mixing console manufacturer Soundcraft where Sean met fellow Cranborne Audio founding members Edward Holmes, Elliott Thomas, and Andrew Pat. Sean, Ed, Elliott, and Andy founded Cranborne Audio as an antidote to various trends they observed in the Professional Audio industry that they felt negatively affected product quality and innovation. Vowing to do things the "right way" and never allowing "good enough" to be good enough - Cranborne Audio released their first product in October 2018 - their Camden 500 preamp and saturation module - to critical acclaim. Cranborne Audio has since released a handful more products - all very innovative and unique with high-performance analogue and digital designs, whilst offering outstanding value and quality including their latest product - Camden EC2.Hugh Robjohns BiogHugh Robjohns has been Sound On Sound´s Technical Editor since 1997.

He continues to provide audio consultancy and bespoke broadcast audio training services all over the world, lectures at professional and public conventions, and occasionally records and masters acoustic and classical music too!
