Alex Rosner
Rosner Custom Sound, New York, USA
Alex Rosner began his love affair with sound in the golden age of hi-fi - and by the early '70s had pioneered the first stereo soundsystem in clubs, the first pair of tweeter arrays and crossover. You're likely to hear his name mentioned in connection with the success of legendary New York clubs such as David Mancuso's The Loft; but you might not know he radically changed the world of DJing when he came up with the prototype for another new gadget - a friendly little mixer with cueing system called Rosie. Alex Rosner has plenty of tricks for people interested in clear, loin-vibrating sound reproduction - but when we say, "That’s magic", he says, "That's just ordinary basic principles."
