All types of audio recordings - studio and location
We offer audio
recording using broadcast quality stereo microphones and radio mic
recording on location to a portable Roland Edirol R4 four channel hard
drive recorder Our audio recordings can be post-produced on computer
non-linear edit suite for delivery on CD or WAV/mp3 downloadable file.
We specialise in voice-over recording using our Rode large diaphragm
condenser microphone and broadcast O2R mixing desk.
Transfer of old format audio tapes to CD
We have extensive experience of archiving and transfer of old audio
tapes - and not so old formats like DAT and Mini Disc - to CD. We use the industry standard Revox B77 MK2 for reel tapes,
the Nakamichi 480 deck for audio cassette tapes, and the Pioneer D-9601
for DAT.
For Mini Disc we use the Marantz PMD640. All recordings are evaluated by
our experienced audio engineer and processed with any EQ dynamics or
filters which can be helpful in improving dialogue intelligibility. We
can also sometimes reduce tape hiss. using the real-time effects on the
Yamaha 02R mixing console.
