ATMOS! I had a quiet couple of days before getting back into the mix tomorrow. So I’ve been going deep into ATMOS interms of what’s going on under the hood and what the manuals don’t say. I’ve been using Pink noise and Enya with loudness measuring pluggins at various stages pre/post renderer and an physical SPL meter to find out exactly what the renderer is doing in terms of the fold downs with both objects and beds. Since this is how most consumers still listen, Stereo and 5.1. After much experimentation I’ve got to a place where my ATMOS mix will fold down to a very predicatable 5.1 and Stereo mix which is what I will still be monitoring most of the time. All this to say I’m moving to a ATMOS mix workflow entirely. So now all indie films I mix will hopefully get their chance to play at the nicer theatres, Sundances’ Eccles theatre, for example is ATMOS equipped. Their production teams can upsell the quality/compatability of their sound mix. If any mixer wants to share info I’ve looked into: ? Using Bed&Objects to reach a 9.1.6bus config since the render only accept 7.1.2 beds. So that ambiences can be easily panned 9.1.4. (I caution against this as there some funkyness in the downmix) ? Best trim settings in the renderer with a ATMOS 85spl and a Theatrical 5.1 85/82rear spl room. ? Favorable fold down settings ? Limiting in ATMOS ? Objects and Top logic ? Enya appreciation

So, are acoustically transparent screens worth the extra price tag? ?? Absolutely! An acoustically transparent screen is an essential component for a real home cinema. The goal is to achieve the ’suspension of disbelief’ for the viewer, so they are fully immersed into the content. Just like in a commercial cinema, the loudspeakers are positioned behind the screen, therefore when the actors speak, the sound appears to come from their mouths! Sometimes, home cinemas are constructed with the loudspeakers exposed either side of a screen and with one below, which doesn't help to create the perfect illusion. However, firing the clear sound of a loudspeaker through a screen can have it’s drawbacks... In effect, you are covering up the speaker with thick materials - so screens come ‘perforated’ with thousands of tiny holes across the vinyl surface. It’s a balance of how much sound to let through and how much light to not lose when projecting onto the surface! Then there’s woven fabric screens, where the woven material naturally has the ability to let lots of sound come through, but enough ’surface’ to project onto. So clearly, a screen that’s not acoustically transparent will yield the best image quality, with no pixels lost! Loudspeakers particularly lose HF (high frequencies) when placed behind a screen, so the character of the speaker changes. This can be partially compensated for with some analogue or digital equalisation to bring some HF ‘back in’. Thankfully, for most movies and TV, the dialogue is the key audio component and this isn't totally dependant on high frequencies. This is why speakers behind a screen can work so well. If your customer wants to play a lot of music though, they may prefer to use another room or have exposed speakers and live with the decreased aesthetics! ??

SOUND TRIBE: Here's my favorite trick when crafting interesting sound design... I call it "Passing the Baton"... I want every sound to have its clear and distinct moment, and then quickly "Pass the Baton" to another sound which then gets its brief moment of fame. This approach allows the sonic story to constantly evolve and change over time, as well as attracting the listener's ear the most important sonic elements at every given moment. The result? Your sound design will be much cleaner and much more interesting. Check out my sound design reel if you'd like an example of how I use this approach: https://lnkd.in/gW7_WrEU

Whether you're in the market for a home theatre, or you're a #CustomIntegrator with clients asking you about the ins-and-outs of home cinema, don't let the technicalities of sound formats be a deep ocean of technical jargon that prevents the job from getting done. It's one thing to understand the technology; it's another to be able to educate (and sell) someone who is not well-versed in it. Obviously, different configurations will require different speakers, different amps, with the wild card of room acoustics & layout also being a factor. But don't despair because even a quick primer can make it WAY less intimidating, helping you to decide which configuration makes the most sense for your budget, needs, and space. Today #DolbyAtmos is current gold standard of audio formats - expanding and improving upon legacy 5.1 surround by producing sound from in front, from the sides, from behind, and even from above, creating a truly immersive cinematic experience at home. If you want to learn more about Dolby Atmos, check the link below for a quick read that will help demystify the technology. And if you're a #custominstaller, it's always good to get a new perspective that can help you education and sell your customers more easily. https://lnkd.in/eRcpyBZm #Dolby #surroundsound #hometheatre #homecinema #hometheater #customintegration #SherpaSmarts #OneExceptionalPartnership

In the performing arts world, what you hear is just as important as what you see. That's why acoustical design is a critical – but often overlooked – element in creating exceptional performance spaces. Proper acoustical design: ?? Enhances sound clarity and quality ?? Eliminates unwanted echoes and reverberations ?? Ensures even sound distribution throughout the venue ?? Adapts to different types of performances From concert halls to theaters, each space presents unique challenges, but our on-staff acousticians craft immersive sonic environments that bring performances to life. Investing in acoustics isn't just about sound, it's about creating unforgettable experiences for both artists and audiences. #acousticaldesign #performingarts #avtechnology #avsolutions #audiovideo #audiovisual #av #avdesign #audio #video

?? The Disaster Season: Sound Design by Source Sound, Inc. / Music by PILOTPRIEST. Bringing together artists and companies I've admired for many years was a dream come true. Having both Source Sound, Inc. and PILOTPRIEST onboard for the sound design and music of this project was truly a highlight of this journey. A special thanks to Charles Deenen whom I connected with here on LinkedIn, for agreeing to be a part of "Boundary of Disaster". This project has been a significant learning experience, and I couldn't have asked for a better outcome. It turned out perfectly. I swear, our friends and families in the cinema screamed ?? when the car fired up. Here is a small glimpse of a few shots and sounds that I love, including the poem from Chase, the main obsessed antagonist. "Thank you" is not enough. ??

In thrillers like Dispose (@disposeshort), where dialogue is minimal, sound becomes a lead character. Every creak, breath, and subtle sound cue builds tension, pulls the audience in, and drives the story forward. Recently, I had the opportunity to work on this gripping short film that relied heavily on sound design to tell its story. Every subtle sound—from footsteps to the faintest rustle—needed to keep the audience on edge. In thrillers, silence can be just as powerful as noise, creating that perfect balance between the two, and transforming silence into suspense. Sound isn’t just a backdrop; it shapes the emotional tone and elevates the performance on screen. As a sound mixer, it’s my job to ensure every beat resonates with the audience, making these projects incredibly rewarding. ?? #SoundMixer?#ProductionSound?#ProductionSoundMixer?#FilmSet?#SoundDept?#LocationSound?#ZaxCom?#DPAMicrophones?#SoundDevices?#lectrosonics?#sounddepartment?#soundrecordist?#Amps?#Cas?#sennheisermicrophones?#sennheiser?#BoomOp?#BoomOperator?#ursa?#ursastraps?#jbl?#jblspeakers?#filmmaking?#sound?#homecinema?#bubblebee?#bubblebeeindustries?#cinela?#rycote?#gvlsound
