About Us:
IT Designs was founded with a simple idea: to
provide the motorcycling community with an easy to use,
high quality, portable audio mixer and amplifier. The company
was founded and is maintained by
John A. Brown, a computer engineer and long distance motorcycle
rider. The Mix-It concept was
developed beginning the summer of 1996 after I became frustrated
with make-shift solutions to a general
problem many motorcycle riders face: being able to hear music
at highway speed and additionally, being
able to hear more than one device at a time. Searches for a solution
were fruitless, which drove me to
develop my own circuits, building upon 15 years of experience
working in television and recording studios
and a solid engineering background. This project started as a
personal solution to the problem, but as
friends and other motorcycle rally goers learned of my device,
they asked to buy one. It didn't take long
to realize there was a market for this product. My attention turned
to actual production of the Mix-It which
required a more comprehensive solution than the rats nest of wires
contained in my personal unit.
Development began and compatibility issues ironed out through
several developmental prototypes and the
help of a couple friends who road tested them, in addition to
myself. The final product was introduced at the
Blitz to Branson rally in April of 2003. The Mix-It2 was built
to meet customer requests for more amplification,
a priority circuit, a true battery low indicator, while maintaining
the same size. The Mix-It2 was introduced in
July 2005.
