“THE IMPROVEMENT IS REMARKABLE.

THE VOCAL INTELLIGIBILITY IS ASTONISHING, AS IS THE IMAGING.”

— JULES CORCIMIGLIA

STAFF AUDIO ENGINEER

KODAK HALL AT THE EASTMAN THEATRE

the Eastman Theatre for 15 years. “I’ve been pushing for a first-quality sound system since I’ve been here. It’s thrill- ing to see it come to fruition. Even for spoken word, which is part of nearly ev- ery event, including symphony concerts, the new system is so much clearer and more articulate.”

“My opinion from the start was that the only acceptable option was a full

Meyer system,” says Jules Corcimiglia, the venue’s staff audio engineer. “And now that we have it, the improvement is remarkable. The vocal intelligibility is as- tonishing, as is the imaging. With musical accompaniment coming from left and right, the center MICA array and UPM-1P front fills draw you into a field of sound coming right from center stage.”

One of the first concerts using the new system was a benefit featuring Eastman alumnus Chuck Mangione. “Of course we had many Eastman faculty in the audi- ence, and they are all very critical and re- fined listeners,” recalls Corcimiglia. “They were coming out with smiles on their faces, saying the sound was absolutely transparent. Some asked me if the sys- tem was really turned on! I assured them it was.”
