Recording Complex at the Janáček Theater

The entire recording complex consists of a recording room, control room, machine room, speaker room and a production room. All of these rooms are now equipped with the state-of-art technology and we have solved the complete supply and installation of the room of acoustics, including designs of acoustic models and simulations.

The heart of the entire recording complex is a modular and recording AVID ProTools S6 system with HXD ProTools and with a full DANTE integration. The system supports up to 24-bit/192 kHz in 7.1 surround and is complemented with a wide range of AD converters. Therefore, to accommodate the required variety of sound modifications we added a software plug-in into the system (Waves, Oxford, etc). An integral part of the whole system is a very extensive set of analogue Avalon, Neve, Focusrite instruments. The whole solution is complemented by Bricaasi and Lexicon top reverbs.

Top Room Acoustics

When designing room acoustics, we put the main attention on the directing room, which must provide the possibility to capture and edit audio signals in adequate acoustic environment. Acoustic elements are tailor-made and placed mostly on the ceiling and walls. Other rooms are solved mainly with acoustic ceilings with suplementary wall elements on exposed positions.

"The studio is equipped with state-of-the-art technology which is currently used around the world. There is no other place in the Czech Republic where such a diverse technology for sound procesing with this range would be installed."
