This Week | New Office Construction for AD-TX

Media_http1bpblogspot_zpqje
Our Dallas offices are still in the same building they've been in since the beginning. Back in the day, when Craig Janssen and Vance Breshears started the Dallas office, the rent-by-the-month office was a logical choice for two men starting with only their personal reputations and a business plan.

As AD took over more and more of the space, the offices transitioned from "rent-by-the-month" to a build-out that housed our landlord's accounting division and ourselves. (Some of the stories about the previous tenants prior to that time are pretty funny...including the "garage band" who rented offices as their practice space with virtually no sound isolation.)

Now, AD is renovating a building close to home. Right across the street as a matter of fact. Demolition has occurred and we are down to the shell. Stay tuned to this blog and we'll keep you posted.

Acoustic Dimensions is pleased to announce the appointment of David W. Robb as Senior Associate in their New Rochelle, NY office, where he serves as the backbone of the Audio and AV Group, providing design direction, quality standards, documentation supervision and a critical ear for all performance space projects.

David is one of the innovators of modern audio installation design, integrating products and techniques from the touring industry into the world of permanent installations. His two decades of audio systems design for performing arts venues are informed by his years of hands-on experience with live sound production acquired through extensive worldwide touring.

Prior to joining Acoustic Dimensions, David spent the last twenty years as principal audio and video systems designer for JaffeHolden Acoustics where he directed all activities of the systems design group while providing innovative solutions and management for key projects, including the Hollywood Bowl; John F. Kennedy Center Concert Hall, Opera House and Eisenhower Theater; Lincoln Center Alice Tully Hall and Julliard School; Radio City Music Hall; and the New York Philharmonic and Metropolitan Opera’s summer touring venue, the Carlos Moseley Pavilion.

Earlier in his career, David acquired a wealth of practical knowledge about the entertainment business through extensive touring in North America, Europe, and Japan. He began as a musician, then spent over two decades as touring sound company manager, mix engineer, production manager, or electronics technology specialist with such popular artists as Jimi Hendrix, Grateful Dead, Frank Zappa, Tom Petty, Bonnie Raitt, Yes and Bob Dylan.
