Paris postproduction facility Creative Sound now counts three Solid State Logic C300 HD Master Studio Systems and one C10 HD console among its studios.
Serving the film and TV production markets, Creative Sound is a large scale, multi-suite, full-service facility and recently installed its third C300 HD for use in both of its Auditorium Cinema studios, which are Dolby Digital Cinema 7.1 surround capable, as well as in Auditorium B studio, which is focused on fiction and documentary production for television.
‘We’ve been using SSL consoles with great success since we opened,’ says owner/engineer, Cristinel Sirli. ‘We chose the C300 HD because the platform offered the audio fidelity and processing power of an SSL digital audio console, combined with comprehensive multi-format monitoring and multi-system machine control we need. It gives us advanced integration with our Pro Tools and Pyramix systems right on the console surface, allowing us to concentrate our energy on the project and not on the technology.
‘Operating a major postproduction facility that attracts some of the biggest film and television projects is always a challenge. The C300 offers a level of quality and improved workflow simply not available in other consoles or control surfaces, and we use it as a creative tool to exceed our client’s expectations and meet project deadlines.’
The C10 HD is giving good service to Creative Sound’s new Foley and ADR stage, representing the first application of this type for the compact broadcast console. ‘The SSL C10 HD was the perfect console for its ergonomics, audio quality and efficiency in our new Foley/ADR stage,’ Sirli says. ‘We built a new facility for the C10, and, while we love the AWS 900 we have for our existing ADR room, we liked the idea of a digital console, and that led us to the C10. The console fits our size requirements and is expandable if needed.’See also:
