All our systems can be used for mixing with a variety of options.
While Pro Tools may be the most well-known "immersive" tool, other apps are also able to create Atmos and immersive content. We now have an Atmos Menu to help understand the options. Our Mix zone has a 9.1.6 speaker environment, while the Edit and Production zones are capable of binaural work with headphones.
The Edit zone has stereo nearfields and headphones for monitoring, and a variety of audio apps capable of mixing. The primary difference between this and the Mix zone is the larger speaker installation for 9.1.6.
The Mix zone is capable of all levels of mixing, including Dolby Atmos. For stereo mixing (as well as mastering) we recommend using the Neve mixer as the monitor controller. For non-atmos surround work, we will setup with discreet outputs to the various monitors. For Dolby Atmos mixing, monitoring will be via the Dolby renderer.
The Production zone has the same powerful set of audio apps as the other zones, but installed in a more traditional shooting and live-streaming environment with stereo speakers and headphones. Stereo and binaural mixing is fully supported..
