Lance, and Chris are the owners of Syncopated Industries, LLC. Syncopated Industries specializes in manufacturing digital audio production equipment, including mixers, amplifiers, and special effects pedals. All five guys are friends from their days in college when they were in the student Acapella group. "Sing-gull Dudes." At their monthly lunch get together, Donny mentions an artist they are promoting, named Bratnee Steers. Bratnee is a singing pianist with an incredible vocal range, and is able to hit the highest soprano notes, as well as the lowest bass notes. Mark adds that the problem with her range is they can't find a quality microphone that works well throughout her entire range, so it is hard to showcase her talent. They just booked her a concert as the headlining performer in six months but worry about the sound quality with regular microphones. Donny entered a contract with "The Stadium" in the city of Cascadia for the event. Justin, Lance, and Chris ask Donny and Mark if they would like to form a new business together and develop a microphone that can handle such a massive range. They all agree. They form a new business, Wide Range Mics, Inc., a close corporation. Donny, Mark, Justin, Lance, and Chris each individually own a 20% interest in the corporation. Wide Range hires some expert technical staff and designers but outsources the production to a company in Bangladesh. In order to keep costs down, Lance, acting as the CFO, asks the Bangladeshi factory manager to "do whatever it takes" to keep costs down and have it ready in two months. The factory manager warns that going any cheaper or faster will require substandard materials and that they cannot guarantee the quality of the product. Lance tells the factory manager to do it anyways but does not tell any of the other four friends about the factory manager's concerns. Wide Range finally develops a microphone that responds very well to an extremely wide range and is ready to test it only three months after forming the corporation. To test the equipment, Mark suggests they bring in Bratnee Steers to record a track.
