• As audio is critical to a musician, audio production is the top priority. Neumann, Sennheiser, AKG, and other classical recording mics are used to record audio on 2-track or 16-track recorders (96K/24-bit). Decca tree, Blumlein, ORTF and other miking techniques available. Mike typically uses mid/side miking. Audio CDs and digital audio files can be supplied.
• Ancillary interviews, voiceovers, behind-the-scenes, and integration of existing footage/images are accommodated.
• DVD/Blu-Ray, AVI, FLV, MOV formats are offered. Audio quality is always maintained. Many online applications now require MP4 or WMV formats.
