Obituary // ULRICH VETTE
It is with great sadness that we bid farewell to University Professor Ulrich Vette, an outstanding sound engineer, inspiring teacher and esteemed colleague who left a lasting mark on our institute. His work was characterized by an untiring passion for the art of sound recording and sound, and he deeply influenced generations of students not only professionally but also personally.
Ulrich Vette was a person with rough edges - someone who was not afraid to speak his mind and always demanded the highest precision and dedication from himself and others. These principles, combined with his attention to detail and tenacity, made him a master of his trade. He taught his students that true excellence can only be achieved through perseverance and uncompromising diligence.
He was highly respected for his exceptional expertise and tireless commitment. His dedication, knowledge and love of perfection will have a lasting impact and live on in the hearts of his students and colleagues.
Our deepest sympathy goes to his wife, his friends and all those who were close to him.
