Crowden presents a free lecture by Meyer Sound co-founder John Meyer on October 30!
John Meyer's influence on the way audiences hear sound spans four decades, dating back to 1967 when he assembled a high-fidelity bass guitar amplification system for The Steve Miller Band's appearance at the legendary Monterey Pop Festival. Since then, John Meyer and his company Meyer Sound have introduced many innovations that have changed the face of sound reproduction, especially in the area of live sound, where he has brought loudspeaker linearity, consistency, and reliability to a whole new level.
When John Meyer entered the field of sound reinforcement, sound systems commonly failed before the end of performances, and the sound they presented was usually of poor quality, due to a combination of flaws in design, manufacturing, and deployment. John's efforts, always centered on improving the audience experience, have significantly raised the standards in all of these areas. John is a proud recipient of the MIPA Lifetime Achievement Award, but recognition of his contributions goes beyond the bounds of the AV world, as illustrated by his receiving a coveted R&D 100 Award, which recognizes the 100 most technologically significant achievements of the year worldwide in a variety of disciplines. To date, Meyer Sound has garnered more than 40 U.S. and international patents.
