Dolby Atmos will change the way you think about music. It must be heard to be believed.

We specialize in immersive audio, mixed in Dolby Atmos. Immersive Mixing Studio A is a dedicated Atmos Room for mixing music, however we also offer a full array of post production services. Featuring the highest standard in recording, mixing and mastering, we are the first Dolby Atmos certified recording studio in Tennessee, and the second in the U.S. 

Mobirise

Our facility was brought to life by Westlake Pro Audio in Nashville and Los Angeles, with the mixing room purpose built by Dave Mattingly of Sound Construction. He has built over 135 recording studio spaces worldwide, including rooms for Jack White, The Black Keys, Keith Urban and all the rooms at Blackbird Studios. Westlake Pro coordinated with Dolby and built our rig in a clean room environment in Los Angeles prior to shipping to Nashville. Every last detail was executed in conjunction between the two companies to Dolby's rigorous specs. After a year and a half of planning and 7 months of construction, Immersive mixing studio A was born.

The Power of Atmos

Dolby Atmos is the new industry standard for all audio, and features surround capabilities that were previously unachievable with older technologies. It can accommodate setups ranging from smart phone music streaming to massive 128 channel theater systems.

A New Standard

Dolby Atmos is an immersive sound experience that adds more space, clarity and depth to your music. Instead of just hearing your music - with Dolby, it feels like you're inside the song.

Despite the advent of streaming music services, which have utterly changed the landscape when it comes to accessing music, there haven’t been many changes to how songs are produced. Whether you listen to music through terrestrial FM, digital satellite, MP3, CD, DVD-Audio, or even lossless high-resolution files like FLAC or DSD, the original recording was probably created in stereo, that familiar two-channel mix of sound that has been with us for decades.

That’s about to change:  Dolby Atmos Music is slowly making its way into the mainstream music business, and it makes good ol’ stereo sound like mono AM radio. You may already be aware of Dolby Atmos for movies and TV shows, but Dolby Atmos Music is its own beast. An entirely new way of recording and listening to music, Atmos Music is becoming a big part of recorded music’s next big leap forward. 

Configured for Perfection

As of it's inception, Immersive Mixing Studio A is the only true Dolby certified Atmos studio in Tennessee and only the second one in the United States. The precision angles of the control room are a marvel and it has just the right amount of pure silence for optimal mixing. It's monitor configuration boasts 7.2.4 surround. That is 7 speakers on ear level, two subwoofers and four over-head speakers, to create a seamless dome of perfect sound, with much more positionability than standard stereo.
