German electronic equipment brand

Uher was a German brand of electronic equipment currently owned and licensed by Assmann Electronics of Bad Homburg. The manufacturer Uher Werke was based in Munich, Germany, and is probably best known for its former range of portable reel-to-reel tape recorders which were once widely used by professionals in areas such as reporting and film-making. Since digital equipment has become widespread, these older analogue recording machines are no longer produced.2 It was founded by Count Karl Theodor of Toerring-Jettenbach and Edmund Uher.1 Wikipedia text CC BY-SA 4.0
