    Avid's Hybrid Engine Now Available For HDX Systems
    In November 2020, Avid introduced the world to the Pro Tools | Carbon. The audio interface features a new Hybrid Engine from the pro audio brand. This unique hardware-software integration allows engineers to swiftly alternate between DSP and native processing. It's the perfect way to record with AAX DSP plug-ins with low latency and mix with the same plug-ins in Native Mode without overloading your Carbon's DSP. Avid has announced that its Hybrid Engine will now be available for HDX Systems with Pro Tools 2021.6 or later. This means HDX System owners can create their own scalable solution featuring the Hybrid Engine that includes IO and DSP expansion, 18 to 54 DSPs (via one to three HDX cards), comprehensive Dolby Atmos Support, thousands of audio tracks and so much more.

    Integrating Dante And Focusrite For A Better Studio Workflow
    In a recent blog, we covered the basics of Audio Over IP networks and how they can benefit your workflow. We’re diving in deeper with a more focused look at Dante and the way this technology works with gear from Focusrite.    What is Dante? It's the leading AoIP technology created by Audinate. Dante allows the use of the same Ethernet technology in consumer and commercial networks for uncompressed multi-channel audio distribution, minimal latency, and sampling rates of up to 192kHz.

    All Sound Upgrades Workflow With Gear From Avid, ADAM Audio And Trinnov Audio
    All Sound is a North Hollywood-based post-production space helmed by Nick Couscouris, a veteran in recording and mixing for advertising campaigns, films, TV shows, sports and more. Prior to his recent work on Happy Ending With Nando Vila and A Quiet Place, Couscouris teamed up with Vintage King's Chris Bolitho to bring in an incredible package of new gear to All Sound. Dubbing his workflow as "streamlined with constant creativity," it was clear from the beginning that Couscouris wanted a set-up that would enable him to work quickly and keep ideas flowing. With that in mind, Bolitho and Couscouris envisioned a centerpiece in the new space with two Avid S3 control surfaces flanked by two Avid Docks. Each surface alone is a powerful tool, but the combination of the two enables you to use some timesaving custom controls. Continue reading →
  7. Utilizing The Trinnov ST2 Pro In A Project Studio

    Utilizing The Trinnov ST2 Pro In A Project Studio
    Over the last couple of months, I’ve had the chance to sit in on two Trinnov ST2 Pro installations and detailed listening sessions. When you’re working in a room that isn’t treated properly, most of the time you don’t even notice the problems, you just get used to them and work with what you have. This is where the old car test and listening on multiple sets of speakers in different listening environments came into play. Most of the time when the song leaves your mixing room for the first time, you often say, “Wow, there is way too much bass” or “Where did all the bass go?” Continue reading →

    A Comparison Of Surround Monitor Controller Options
    Surround monitor controllers are a vital link in the chain for today’s composers and post-production professionals. Situated between your DAW or console I/O and speakers, this tool serves as the control for volume attenuation and routing of your audio at the final stage of reference. The need for transparent and accurate control is shared by pretty much everyone, but there are a wide array of features and capabilities that require some decision making. Do you need a simple 5.1 desktop unit for an editing suite? What about something that will let you expand for additional channels down the road? How about a complete solution that will handle immersive content and also provide room and acoustic correction? Continue reading →

    Five Ways Trinnov D-Mon Will Supercharge Your Studio
    Do you trust your monitoring environment? Do your mixes translate as you expect them to? For most of us, the likely answer is “no”, or at best, “somewhat”. If you think the problem might be your monitors or room acoustics, you’re right, but that doesn't necessarily mean your gear or space needs a complete overhaul. Continue reading →
