Ampex Corporation (Nasdaq:AMPX) was honored last evening at the
50th Annual Grammy Awards ceremony in Los Angeles, California,
where it took home its first Grammy Award for Technical
Achievement. This prestigious award now makes its home with 12
Emmy�s, one Oscar and numerous other awards bestowed on Ampex for
outstanding technical achievement. The award was accepted by Ampex
Chairman D. Gordon Strickland and former Ampex engineers Jay
McKnight, Myron Stolaroff and John Leslie. The company's first tape
recorder, the Ampex Model 200, revolutionized the radio and
recording industries. In 1948, ABC used an Ampex Model 200 audio
recorder for the first-ever U.S. tape-delayed radio broadcast of
The Bing Crosby Show. Ampex also designed multitrack recorders that
enabled Les Paul to produce overdubbed recordings. Ampex withdrew
from the professional audio tape recorder market in 1983. Its
subsidiary, Ampex Data Systems Corporation today sells solid state,
disk and tape recorders primarily to the instrumentation market.
