At this year’s Inter BEE exhibition in Japan, and in conjunction with Japanese distributor Otaritec, PMC will run a series of immersive audio mixing seminars in a Dolby Atmos suite equipped with a 7.1.4 PMC system consisting of PMC6-2 active monitors for left, center and right channels as well as PMC6 monitors for surrounds and overheads.
Grammy Award-winning producer/engineer David Rideau, who’s worked with roducers such as Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis and artists such as Sting, TLC, Janet Jackson, Yolanda Adams, Brenda Russell, Earth Wind and Fire, George Benson, Tom Scott, Al Jarreau and Kirk Franklin, will deliver two seminars daily throughout the show, assisted by PMC’s senior export business development manager Dan Zimbelman.
“This is the first time that visitors to Inter BEE will be able to enjoy immersive audio mixing demonstrations from an acknowledged expert of David’s caliber in a fully equipped Dolby Atmos suite,” Zimbelman says. “Many internationally acclaimed studios have chosen PMC monitors for their Atmos rooms, including Universal Music Group, Warner Music Group, Dean Street Studios and Apple. We are delighted to be partnering with Otaritec in this venture, which will highlight PMC’s long-term support for Dolby Atmos and the suitability of our professional monitoring products for immersive audio music mixing facilities.”
Following Inter BEE, which takes place in Tokyo from November 15-17, PMC will hold a series of invitation-only seminars at Xylomania Studios in Tokyo, which has just completed its second PMC-equipped Dolby Atmos studio. These will run on November 20 and 21, and once again Rideau will give participants the benefit of his experience of mixing in the Atmos format.
