Shed Studios - Pro-Active Audio

Pro-Active Audio

In 1995, Roskilly started an offshoot called Prosound, which was to become a live sound production company. It took him away from the studios, and so Studio Engineer Kelly Rusike took over more of the computer studio work.

In 1996, Shed hosted an enthusiastic gap year student from Britain Chris Martin. Martin was nephew to one of Roskilly's friends. They operated and developed the new PA company together for about 6 months, and worked in the computer studio producing jingles. When Martin went away to university, he then founded the supergroup Coldplay.

Andrew McClymont replaced Chris Martin in 1997, as Prosound became Pro-Active Audio Zim, becoming hire manager, and the company took off, handling all sound services for the extensive World Council of Churches' 8th Assembly in 1998, led by general secretary Konrad Raiser.
