A Modern Sound-Reinforcement System for Theaters

C. E. Talley, R. W. Kautzky

Theaters using “live” talent shows usually require a sound-reinforcement system to enable patrons to hear as well as to see the entire show. This paper describes a system recently installed in the Roxy Theater in New York City, which incorporates many unique features to permit satisfactory handling of any stage presentation, however complex. Among these features are a control console of unusual design, equipped with mixers and volume controls of a new type, and a method of effecting stereophonic reproduction.
