GCRS

Six new state of the art digital studios. All are designed and built to the highest world acoustic and technical standards for audio post production.

Studio 5 is certified for both Dolby 5.1 and 7.1 and has the unique ability for 3D projection / real time playback. Studios  7 and 8 are certified 5.1.

All six studios are equipped with Pro Tools.

Studios 5,7,8 and 9 have AMS Neve DFC Gemini mixing and editing consoles, with Studio 1 and 6 operated by Icon.  We have extensive outboard sound design and sound manipulation software/hardware, hard disk picture servers, a network 1 million track+ library music server and a 300,000+ Sound Effect server. A common core of technical hardware in all of the main studio areas allows us to offer our clients great flexibility when booking sessions for sound designer choice, studio features and size.

Of our sound designers, Ben Leeves, Raja Sehgal and Gary Turnbull mix for all formats including 5.1 for Cinema, 3D and HD TV. Munzie Thind, Steve Lane, Miles Kempton, Tristan Rose and Henry Frith are our stereo specialists.

Having such a roster of sound designers versed in the art of mixing 5.1 and stereo gives clients flexibility and freedom of choice that is not available elsewhere. It also means that the sound for the spot can be worked holistically rather than the 5.1 version being treated as an after thought and mixed by someone who has played no part in the creative sound design process.
