Summary

Website: http://www.roger-mayer.co.uk/

Roger Mayer is the electrical engineer who developed several electric guitar effects, most notably the Octavia, an effects pedal which reproduced the input signal one octave higher, and mixes the two sounds with some added fuzz. The effect was popularized by Jimi Hendrix, and can be heard during the solos on the song "Purple Haze". The Octavia, as well as several other effects, are still being produced under Roger Mayer's name. More information...

    • Douglas G. Shearer (November 17, 1899 – January 5, 1971) was a Canadian-born pioneer sound designer and recording director who played a key role in the advancement of sound technology for motion pictures. Shearer was born in Montreal, Quebec to a prominent upper class family, but his family fell on hard times after his father's business failed, which ultimately led to his parents' separation.
    • Sir Oliver Joseph Lodge, FRS (12 June 1851 – 22 August 1940) was a physicist and writer involved in the development of key patents in wireless telegraphy . Lodge, in his Royal Institution lectures ("The Work of Hertz and Some of His Successors"), coined the term "coherer. " He gained the "syntonic" (or tuning) patent from the United States Patent Office in 1898. He was also credited by Lorentz (1895) with the first published description of the Length contraction hypothesis, in 1893.

    • Henry Kloss was a prominent audio engineer and businessman who helped advance high fidelity loudspeaker and radio receiver technology beginning in the 1950s. Kloss (pronounced with a long o, like "close") was a student in physics at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (class of 1953), but never received a degree. He was responsible for a number of innovations, including the acoustic suspension loudspeaker and the high fidelity cassette deck.

    • Paul Wilbur Klipsch (March 9, 1904 – May 5, 2002) was an American engineer and high fidelity audio pioneer, known for developing the high-efficiency folded horn loudspeaker, who revolutionized the way the world listens to recorded music. Unsatisfied with the sound quality of phonographs and early speaker systems, Klipsch used scientific principles to develop a corner horn speaker that sounded more lifelike than its predecessors.
