McCarthy was an early employee at Meyer Sound and was instrumental in the development of the company's SIM source independent measurement system. He also taught the first SIM School, which later evolved into Meyer Sound's ongoing education programme that today spans the globe. McCarthy eventually went on to become an independent sound system designer and tuner, a role in which he worked on numerous events, experience he now brings back to Meyer Sound.
Besides working on Constellation, McCarthy will also continue his involvement with Meyer Sound's worldwide seminar series. In recent years, McCarthy has taught SIM and system design seminars around the world as part of the Meyer Sound programme.
"Over the years, I have been looking for new solutions to meet unique challenges presented by different venues. The advent of Constellation caught my attention," says McCarthy. "It was the natural impetus for me to work even more closely with the company. I'm very excited to be in the forefront of another Meyer Sound innovation."
"Bob is extremely talented and he has been part of the Meyer Sound family since very early in the company's history," says executive vice-president Helen Meyer. "He was key in the birth of SIM and now, he will contribute to our ongoing development of Constellation. We are excited to have him on our team."
