WORLD: Meyer Sound has announced two key promotions within its digital products team. Richard Bugg has been named audio show control product manager, whilst Jason Rauhoff will take over many of Mr Bugg’s former responsibilities in his new role as senior digital products support specialist. In addition, Cirque du Soleil veteran Robert Mele has joined the manufacturer’s support staff as digital products field support specialist.
‘These new appointments are a direct result of the rapidly growing acceptance of our digital products,’ commented John McMahon, Meyer Sound’s executive director of operations and digital products. ‘This personnel expansion ensures that our technology remains the leading choice of the creative community pushing to transform sonic experiences worldwide.’
Mr Bugg has accumulated more than 12 years of experience in technical support roles for Meyer Sound show control systems, and has been a principal seminar leader on the topic in the manufacturer’s education programme. His new role will see him work closely with R&D, marketing, sales and technical services departments to identify needs and develop new show control technology solutions.
Prior to joining Meyer Sound in 2010 as a technical support specialist for digital products, Mr Rauhoff accumulated 17 years of experience as a recording engineer, FOH mixer, programmer and sound designer. Projects of note include several Las Vegas resident Cirque du Soleil productions as well as the ‘multimedia spectacular’ Dragon's Treasure at the City of Dreams, Macau.
Meanwhile, Mr Mele worked in the Cirque du Soleil audio department for 14 years, and his credits include La Nouba in Orlando, the Corteo touring show, and two resident Las Vegas productions, Criss Angel Believe and The Beatles Love.
