World Class Sound Facility

The CineLab SoundMix sound post-production facility welcomed its first clients in spring 2012. The building plan and acoustical design was performed by White Mark Limited, whose leading acoustic engineer David Bell worked on the design of the best studios in the UK, US and many other countries. During the construction of the facility we used the knowledge of the specialists from world-renowned studios like Digital Factory of Luc Besson and Pinewood/Shepperton, as well as independent Russian and international specialists in different areas of sound post-production.

Audio, video and IT infrastructure of the studio complex provides high flexibility and reliability. All audio and video data is stored on a redundant shared SAN system, which provides with the possibility to store, access, and share  media in collaborative workgroup environments. Thus, the time for the migration of projects from one studio to another is optimized. High bandwidth and transparency of use allow a seamless workflow for all DAWs in the complex. The offline backup server provides additional safety of assets storage. Despite the size difference, all rooms provide the same viewing and listening angles from mix position to screen. Well-controlled listening environment allows for nearly perfect mix translation from studio to studio. High-definition video projection and 5.1 audio monitoring are available as standard in each studio room. Advanced switching/routing capabilities are implemented all over the complex. That makes the studios really multifunctional. A combination of VNC technology and flexible KVM matrix system enables instant access to any workstation and to any auxiliary PC of the complex from any workplace in the mixing theatres. A large server-based SFX library, including industry-standard Hollywood Edge and Sound Ideas collections, is available online at every DAW through convenient ProTools-integrated interface.

Every studio also features accurate climate control, adjustable working lights, comfortable chairs and cozy client's area, which makes work pleasing as well as productive.

FOLEY SUITE

Foley studio was designed and built with two different workflow concepts in mind – the recording engineer can work in an isolated control room or control the recording at the live area with the Foley artist. A dedicated space is provided in the live area giving an opportunity to move and easily connect the necessary outboard and terminal for the engineer. The main projection screen in the live area features 3 theatrical screen speakers for immediate listening of the recorded sound in context. The live area is divided into 4 working zones. The motorized ceiling panels and wall curtains allow modifying room acoustics if real early reflections are desired. Foley studio is equipped with plenty of props and devices including various floor structures, trays for dry and liquid substances, a kitchen with furniture and home appliances, a pool for water FX, several doors, a car body, etc. A dedicated storage room has a car access dock with gates for unloading and bringing in large props. The props list is being continuously updated. A separate restroom with shower is provided for Foley artists.
