06/11/13 07:42 AM,
Editor’s Note: This story was extracted from from RE/P, Vol 5, Number 1, which originally ran in Jan/Feb 1974. While somewhat dated in regard to specific technological advances, this text is still full of solid, relevant information. “Multi-Function” is a phrase we have invented to describe the spectrum of challenges, problems and responsibilities sound people are continually exposed to while working to achieve the best possible audio environment in club-type establishments. The obvious grammatical redundancy of the phrase is intended…
