Dear All,

2012 has arrived. Many are haunted by the ancient Mayan prophecy that predicted earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions and the end of the world. They look at recent natural disasters, climate change, the global recession, extremism and terrorism as signs that the end is near—but I completely dismiss these doomsday predictions, as it’s my nature to always think positive. I’m not scared... I take one day at a time and embrace this new year with as much enthusiasm and passion as I did when I started this adventure. For this reason, I have once again put all my energy and resources into research and development—and for 2012 we are ready to introduce many fantastic new products into the Mark World.

I do need to admit that I think there will be a “Big Bang” in 2012… not one that causes the end of the world, but an explosion of energy that will once again raise the bar for bass amp heads! The Big Bang is, in fact, a fantastic Markbass head, smaller than the Little Mark heads with impressively warm tone and all the features that customers have been asking for: aux in, headphone out with level control, mute and EQ filter with footswitch control. Following up on the incredible success of the TTE 500, we’re introducing a powerful 800W version: the TTE 800. Also, a new MoMark head with a tube preamp and 500W and 800W versions, and a new line of incredibly useful effect pedals.

There’s lots going on with DV Mark: a new version of the Triple 6 that includes MIDI control and the double option of Bad Boy 120 and Triple 6 settings; the new DV403 CPC, a 3-channel version of the Little 40 head with our patent pending Continuous Power Control; and the incredible Multiamp, to multiply your sound options with stereo power, state-of-the-art amp and speaker emulation, signal processing and more. Together with Frank Gambale, we’ve developed the powerful, innovative and uncompromising AMPLI-TUDE, a user-friendly amp that first and foremost respects the priority of tone. We also decided to offer more speaker options; so we’re featuring ceramic Celestion speakers in the CS 112 Small and CS 212 cabinets, as well as in the Galileo 15 Vintage combo. DV Mark is also launching a new line of practical and killer-sounding effect pedals.

And... Mark Drum is no longer a dream! Our “electronic drum set with an acoustic heart,” YES, is now a reality! However, calling Mark Drum “electronic drums” would be selling it short, considering its feel comes as close as possible to the feel of an acoustic kit. We’re very proud to be on the cutting edge of design, feel, and sound: this is made possible by the development philosophy for all our Parsek brands: always listening carefully to the needs and suggestions of musicians, and taking advantage of the 100% Made in Italy production at our factory to make innovations and improvements quickly. I love my team and my people for their great work on that, and I’m convinced that no other team can develop products like these!

I’d also like to mention Musician World: a line of high-quality, musician-inspiredclothing and accessories that I created in 2011 and will be introduced worldwidethis year.If all this great news can be considered “the end of the world”... let me say,“Welcome, 2012!” Marco De Virgiliis 3

You’ll be amazed that such a warm, rich and “explosive” sound comes from an amp smaller than our groundbreaking Little Mark heads! And despite its small size, it’s packed with extra features that customers have been asking for: aux in, headphone out with level control, mute and VLE and VPF filters with footswitch control. Other features include a simple and effective 4-band EQ, effects loop, and level control and pre-post EQ switch for the XLR DI output.

YES is the first professional electronic drum kit with a living, beating, acoustic, yellow, Italian heart. Yellow is sunshine, energy, vitality, creativity, inspiration... and madness. It’s true, we had to be insane to cram so many innovations into a single kit! From the superb sounds provided by the 24 onboard drum kits, to the amazing lightness and portability of the aluminum rack (powered by our bus connection system) and the innovative “Hot Spot Removal” sensor technology, this is a drum product you have not seen before. All of these outstanding features are packed into one practical and simple design, because... YES is MORE! Have you ever wondered about the color of your sound? Now we can confirm: YES, the sound is YELLOW.Calling Mark Drum “electronic drums” would be selling it short, since playing them feels so

much like playing an acoustic drum kit.
