Multimedia Tribute to Miles Davis Relies on Meyer Sound Gear

Monday, February 15th, 2010

PARIS – At We Want Miles: Jazz Face to Face With Its Legend, an exhibition dedicated to Miles Davis at the Musée de la Musique, curator Vincent Bessière and sound designers Philippe Wojtowicz and Mathias Abherve used a compact Meyer Sound system for the two levels of the exhibit hall. The exhibit will move to Montreal in April, 2010.
To show music in a museum space was no easy feat. The venue's reverberant physical acoustics and the close proximity of the listening spaces required careful control of the sound. The visible presence of the audio equipment, meanwhile, had to be kept to a minimum so visitors could focus on the musical instruments, stage clothes, portraits, session sheets and other artifacts. Most important of all, sound clarity was a priority in order to accurately reflect the immense musical talent of the artist.

Are We Living in “Groundhog Day?”

Monday, February 15th, 2010

For those of you who watched the Grammy Awards on Sunday night (and apparently there were more of you this year than any year since 2004), you may have had a feeling of déjà vu when you saw virtually the same group of stars that clustered together in 2009, 2008, etc. Does this perhaps remind you — at least a little — of the 1993 film Groundhog Day? You know, like Bill Murray’s character hearing “I Got You Babe” every morning?

Now, if you happen to want to hear the same song at the same time every day, that’s fine with us. But sometimes it’s fun to let the needle find a new groove.
