Episode 31: Ed Lacinski on Audio Engineering and Patchogue-Medford Schools


Listen Later

Ed Lacinski was destined for a career in audio. As a child, he read the liner notes of albums to learn the names of the sound engineers. Then he began taping his school musical performances in Patchogue-Medford which brought him to the attention of Jack Ellsworth at WALK and WLIM. He worked for years at Harman Kardon and along the way assisted in a session at Abbey Road Studios and changed out a woofer at an Earth, Wind & Fire concert at Jones Beach.

Sounds good to us. All that and more on this deep dive into audio history.
