Center for the Arts of Homer - Homer, New York
The Center for the Arts is a concert and events facility in Homer, NY, hosting award-winning and world-renowned musicians, as well as local theatre, opera, cabarets, community events, outreach, and education programs. I began with the Center by helping reconfigure their audio system for better overall quality and even-coverage. I am also fortunate to be one of several sound engineers mixing their live events, as time and opportunity allow. Highlights so far have included Shemekia Copeland, Livingston Taylor and Tom Chapin, and the Old Boy Records Showcase.
In addition to ongoing live mixing for the primary stage, helped to rework and reposition the control booth and audio components for better clarity of signal and more diverse application; a malleable solution while the facility plans and pursues permanent upgrades.
