Sound360 creates the first studio 9.1.6 South Korea's Dolby Atmos

The study 9.1.6 Dolby Atmos of Sound360 Uses coaxial monitors Genelec The Ones and has three 8351 for L-C-R channels, twelve 8341 as surrounds and overheads, and three 7370 as subs. The entire system is tuned and calibrated using GLM Loudspeaker Manager software.

Smart Active Monitors from Genelec are helping Sound360 create the first studio 9.1.6 Dolby Atmos from South Korea.

“The recording room is designed for Dolby Atmos 3D audio and immersive sound recording and mixing”, Explains Ha Neul Lee, audio engineer responsible for stereo mixes and Dolby Atmos at Audioguy. “The studio's reverberation time and acoustic treatment were also calibrated for mixing in 360 degrees with surround sound monitors”.

The decision to create an immersive recording space was based on the belief that this is the direction in which it is moving, while the format 9.1.6 was selected for its ability to deliver 3D mixes through popular consumer devices.

“Now that immersive audio is available, Dolby Atmos is one of several immersive audio formats that Sound360 offers. The mixtures that are created with the system 9.1.6 Here in the studio, can be easily enjoyed using a simple stereo system such as that found on a mobile device. This compatibility is finally making 3D audio more accessible to audiences, and it's becoming popular", Choi adds.

The room is custom-designed for immersive sound recording and mixing. In fact, The studio's reverberation time and acoustic treatment were also calibrated for mixing in 360 degrees with surround sound monitors.

When choosing monitors for this study, Sound360 opted for Genelec. "Their monitors deliver consistent sound not only at high volumes, but also relatively low, so I can get the right balance of every instrument in the mix.", Choi explains.

Ha Neul Lee, Engineer responsible for the installation, provides more details: "By using Genelec's smart active monitors with GLM, We have been able to calibrate the monitoring systems to obtain a consistent sound from room to room. We were even able to fix the acoustic issues while working with the consistent sound.".
