2013 MEDIA KIT - FOH Online

It’s All About
the Content!
FOH looks at audio from a personal level.
Of course it matters how a piece of gear works. But what matters
more to FOH subscribers is how others in their shoes solve real
day-to-day problems in business, shows and installations. They
want straight talk on new products—why a recent show or venue
used a certain piece of gear and will it work for their
applications.
FOH subscribers have high expectations.
They expect FOH’s editorial not to be tainted by manufacturer’s
biases. They trust FOH because they know FOH has the same
passion for performance audio they do. Magazines without
passion inspire no one. FOH inspires every month. You can rest
assured whenever two audio pros get together at some point
in the conversation you will hear, “Hey, Did you read in FOH this
month…”
FOH is the audio magazine
that puts working audio pros first.
FOH provides its readers a monthly glimpse into the shared
experience of working in performance audio. Our subscribers
know FOH delivers a perspective on the gear, the industry, and
the men and women working in it they will read nowhere else.
FOH readers think—and work—“outside the box.”
They are not looking for a physics lesson. FOH provides them
peer-to-peer editorial. This is editorial written by other sound
pros who lug gear, mix shows, pack trucks, design systems and
live the same life they are leading. It’s honest. It’s raw and it’s
real. That’s why it’s read. That’s why it creates community.
“Interesting Topics,
News, Reviews, & Advice
in manageable bites, thanks.”
