Does anyone know his age and how long did he work for mackie


I'd guess he was around 60. He had ups and downs with cancer for several years. He did some consulting for Mackie before joining the company but I'd put his time there as 1997-2001 give or take a couple of years. After leaving Mackie, he put his own company, Sanewave, into high gear, designing or contributing to the design of about 100 products for other manufacturers, including the late, lamented update of the d8b, the X-Bus. The Project Mix that he designed for M-Audio was probably the seed for the PreSonus StudioLive console.

Bob was full of ideas, always coming up with something new to build or a different way of doing something. It was hard, at least at Mackie, to stop him and get him to accept that a project was "finished." I'd always come away from a chat with Bob with a clearer view of whatever we were talking about, and usually a smile.

He'll be missed.

That is way too young to die. Most sad.
