Bruce Jackson was approached by Barbra Streisand's producer in 1993 to mix her first concert tour in decades. Jackson's innovative approach included carpeting large venues like Wembley Stadium and Madison Square Garden for acoustic enhancement, along with implementing expensive drapes to dampen sound reflections. Streisand's preference for vintage stage monitors led Jackson to create custom solutions, such as a 'stage wedge' which used soft dome drivers for midrange and high frequencies. The stage monitors, line array and extravagant acoustic treatments were a hit with Streisand, who proclaimed Jackson as 'the best sound engineer in the world.' Jackson received an Emmy Award for sound design and mixing on Streisand's TV special Barbra: The Concert.
