Abstract:
There continues to be an increasing need for facility upgrade and expansion in the broadcast production and post-production sectors. Numerous technical and social issues are fueling this, including changing delivery and production protocols (i.e., HDTV, surround audio, etc.); improved economic times with respect to media content organization; etc. Typically, facilities have had to expand or improve their audio production rooms by retrofitting an existing room or installing a new room within an existing production complex. This panel will explore specific techniques as well as examples dealing with the construction and more specific acoustic and technology issues, associated with retrofitting and renovating audio production facilities with an eye toward broadcasting production and post production standards.
