Mostly got them coffee. lol
Sales manager. No longer in the pro audio game. Ramsa was such a small part of Panasonic we always wore many hats; sales mgr., product developer/mgr., pr, chauffeur (for engineers and brass from Japan), gopher, etc. Met some great people, learned a lot but ultimately had to move on to something that paid a little more dinero. It was sad to hear they had shut the division down a few years back. They made great consoles and speakers. Amps, too. DAT machines, too.
Ahh, the good ole days.

Wow, I have a first version DA-7 and still use it. I had no idea Roger
was in on it or Don, Al. What did you do with them for the board?

Roger lent his golden ears and significant technical know-how to the
development of the DA-7 small format digital mixer. A lot more went
into that little board than many are aware of. Other contributors
included Don Was, Yello, Al Kooper, Elliot Scheiner - I'm sure I'm
forgetting someone. The cool part for me was the chance to spend some
quality time with each of them. Super people, every one. Roger was
always approachable and down to earth. And incredibly talented.

BC, Curious what did Roger do for Ramsa?
