Past Event: Sigma Sound Studios - A History in Pictures Film Screening

April 29, 2021 at 7:00 pm

Location: Zoom

Moderated by: Chip Powell

Speaker(s): Arthur Stoppe, Dirk Devlin, Jay Mark, Jim Gallagher and Joe Tarsia of Sigma Sound

Founded in 1968, Sigma Sound Studios was the center of the "Sound of Philadelphia" during the 70s and beyond making Philly a musical powerhouse; eventually expanding into NYC as well.

Sigma Sound engineer Arthur Stoppe, a veteran of 25 years at the studio, recounts its history while presenting an insider's view using photos he took during the heyday of the Philly Sound, including some images not previously shown publicly. The photos show not only the facilities and gear collection (some of it innovative for its time), but provide a behind-the-scenes look at Sigma's staff and clients at work. This is an encore presentation of the video that was shown as part of the “Historical Track” during the fall 2020 AES Convention.

Other Sigma engineers will add their recollections of life in the studio during a panel discussion and Q & A session following the video.
