| Replacing
the Lighting
Mike Hurkmans started out
by replacing the old fluorescent lights with new "green" low energy
lights.

Replacing the Lighting
More Green low
energy lighting helps illuminate
"The Big Picture." | |

the Sound Response

Ted Nicholas hanging up pleated cloth on all wall surfaces to help
"deaden" the sound response. Larry Hall and Sharon Hurkmans helped as
well (not shown).

Good job Mike!

Colored Cloth for the Mixer Station

Station. It looks great! | |

a Window Box

for light and sound control. Ted and Larry assist.

Running
the Cables
Mike and Ted drill holes to run the headphone cables through
the ceiling studs. | |

Headphones
The cables are run and the
headphones are hung, one for each mic station.

Break time!

for any capture situation. | |

connections and sound levels. It works great!
