Concert RecordingCase Study
There are no second takes in live recordings. To ensure a perfect capture, we deployed a redundant recording system (simultaneous primary and backup recordings) and deployed 10 microphones to enable post-production mixing which would guarantee a sound quality as good or better than standard live broadcast events.
Post production processes enhanced the recordings by removing unwanted noises like coughs, chair squeaks, or hum from lighting fixtures.
