Biography
Back in the late 1960s, he worked at Armstrong Studios. By 1972 these studios became the largest studio complex complex in the southern hemisphere with five studios, after which the company was re-titled AAV (Armstrong Audio Visual). Rose is predominantly a producer/engineer. By the late 1980s/early 1990s, a staff consortium of AAV, headed by Rose, acquired the audio arm of operations of AAV and Rose renamed this company to Metropolis Audio, which shut down in 2006.
