Audio pre-production for large custom configured venues is always a challenge. The mix cannot be made onsite because it’s always busy and in regular audio production fascicles like studios and with headphones the loudspeaker formats normally just match to standard formats like Stereo, 5.1, and 7.1.4. Another issue is how to check and play it finally onsite. What kind of master is requested. The workshop will offer an example and workflow how deal with and solve all this issues.

Today we have new benchmarks for immersive audio like the Sphere in Las Vegas. What makes such environments so special and are such venues however asked for more, maybe interactivity? And how to create the content for such custom and complex loudspeaker environments? The presentation will touch these tasks and offer some more details and insides as well as showing a workflow example.
