Ray Dolby, who blinded us with compressor-expanders, RIP, 9/12/2013. This guy single-handedly made audio cassette recording barely listenable. Quite an achievement for quarter track stereo on 1/8" tape at 1.875 inch/sec. The incredibly plush Dolby headquarters in the Mission District were financed entirely with royalty payments. Stepping into this building was like stepping directly from Calcutta into Abu Dhabi.
