Moving toward the finish line.

It's official. The first of our three new control rooms is ready for furniture and equipment.



Zac has just finished stuffing insulation above the suspended ceiling and placing the remaining ceiling tiles. That's why he's wearing the hazmat suit and mask. The black rectangle high on the front wall holds the mount for the 52" flat panel hi-def LCD monitor.

As you can see, the Argosy consoles have been assembled. It took a couple of days to put together the consoles and producer desks for all three rooms. But as usual, Mike found a way to make it fun.


I've mentioned in previous posts that Studio 1 will double as a screening room with a 73" DLP 1080p monitor. This week the custom cabinet work arrived to hold the monitor, audio components and speaker. David shows off the handiwork.


The towers to the left and right will be covered with black speaker grill cloth to give the unit a seamless appearance. The video monitor is exactly as high as the towers. A valance will drop from the ceiling to the perimeter of the top and sides. Once installed, the main theatre curtain can be pulled completely shut to obscure the unit, opened to the side of the unit for screenings, or opened all the way to the side walls to add some more liveliness to the room's acoustics.


To give you a sense of scale, the screen is 65" wide and 43" high.

Novawall fabric installation continues in the other two control rooms. Here's a sneak preview of the color scheme in Control Room A, where Anthony will craft fabulous sound design and mixes.


And in Studio 3, the small vocal booth, acoustics are being installed. To save time and money, David decided to create custom frames for Ready Traps from Ready Acoustics. Once stuffed, the frames will be covered with Guilford of Maine fabric then trimmed with oak for a custom look. The oak chase in the center will hold the mic panel and a 32" 1080p monitor where you see the gap in the chase. Studio 2, the medium sized room, is getting the same treatment only with a larger video monitor.


Moving day is now six days away. Will everything be ready? Sta-a-a-a-y tuned.

Until next time...
