Music and sound, genius and rigor...

Nowadays making music, working with the voice and sound at high levels, is no longer just a question of art, creativity and genius, but also of technique in order to be able to produce audio with a great SOUND. Regardless of the destination, we put the same care and attention into both the creative and production phases of acquisition, editing, mixing and mastering, operating from the beginning in the audio format that gives us the greatest guarantee of impeccability of the result.< /p>

Where there is sound, we are there.

Our services, divided into the three skills MUSIC, VOICE and SOUND, are aimed at any sector and destination:

MUSIC area

Composition services constitute our most important and demanding vocation.
Based on the project, the subject, the target and only after the in-depth analysis of the context through the constructive and preventive meeting with authors, directors and publishers, we can venture into the most suitable creative path. However, before even thinking about music, on the basis of the atmospheres and sensations we want to evoke, we idealize the most suitable instrumental setups and audio formats by sketching "outlines" capable of orienting our musical language in the right direction.

Beyond pure creativity, here are the derivative and/or complementary services:

• Composition
• Virtual Orchestration ^{(other info)}
• Arrangement
• Instrumentation
• Covers & Audio backing tracks ^(**)

* Virtual Orchestration - Each creation is processed in Virtual Orchestration. Technology, through sophisticated libraries of virtual instruments and environment processors, now allows an entire orchestra to be reproduced with a computer but... it is a common mistake to think that with just a few steps you can obtain a truly satisfactory result. IT'S NOT LIKE THIS!...

Operating in Virtual Orchestration is as passionate as it is complex since technology implies knowledge that goes beyond musical knowledge, from that of all real acoustic and electroacoustic instruments to their use in various eras and styles, from midi programming to phonic skills, from acoustics to sound processing equipment, from interpretative ones to the deeper concepts of contextual coherence between music, sounds, atmospheres and images.

Objective - Virtual Orchestration is not limited, unlike common thought, to the production of a very rough model (mokup) which, like a sketch, alone l summary idea of a project, but instead concretizes the musical project itself into a finished product, directly suitable for the final production, commercially usable. Most of the current soundtracks of the most important film productions are 55% created in Virtual Orchestration or mixed technique.

These are the skills associated with the area:

• Preparation of the setup and virtual routing best suited to the project
• Insertion of real instruments and voices
• Meticulous execution and careful editing
• Mixing and mastering in the required digital audio formats

If required, it is possible to insert authentic instrumental and vocal sounds. Professional session musicians, orchestra teachers, singers and choral groups collaborate with us and, according to specific requests, we host in our studios the artists who are best suited to the project in progress.

(* Virtual Orchestration services are exclusively linked to our creations. Except in exceptional cases, we DO NOT convert or process third-party musical projects)

** Cover & Audio Backing Tracks - There are many scenarios in which, again in Virtual Orchestration, it is necessary to remake the soundtrack: audio backing tracks for karaoke and singing entertainment; covers that in some way do not go beyond the copyright of the original song; record productions and/or pre-productions; specimens; reconstruction of extremely damaged musical scores for which any level of restoration is impossible. The prerequisite for this skill is to reproduce the original reference as faithfully as possible.

These are the services offered for this area:

• Creation of audio tracks of any kind
• Reconstruction of musical scores of any genre and era

VOICE area

The voice is fundamental in many applications and although the obvious role is to COMMUNICATE through words, credibility is very often compromised by incorrect interpretative contextualisation.

Both in speech and dubbing, as well as in singing, as for music and images, the interpretative style must be suited to the message you want to convey in relation to the target audience that will receive it. Not only a wrong voice in terms of timbre or age but also an interpretation that is not deeply connected to the context risks compromising the entire communication project.

This is why we always try to understand as thoroughly as possible the strength of the images and the nature of the message, in order to develop the most effective vocal approach to achieving the purpose.

For this we strictly rely on professional actors, dubbers and interpreters, often coming from Anglo-American musicals, who have extreme interpretative ability, a timbre that is always suggestive and suited to the project.

These are the services offered relating to this area:

• Acting and interpreted singing
• Voice over
• Speach
• Readings and dialogues
• Specific guttural sounds
• Post-production for vocal effects

SOUND area

In specific audiovisual fields, the role of effects and "noise" play a fundamental role in achieving maximum environmental credibility.

A film without music would inevitably be fake but... if also deprived of humor, starting from that imperceptible background noise that determines each specific environment that accompanies us from the very first days of life up to the most specific, it would really be something impossible.

In all cases where it is necessary to reconstruct the noise column or insert new and more effective ones, up to the most industrious expertise such as sound design, making use of infinite libraries or producing the necessary sounds in the studio, we are in capable of creating a truly realistic and effective noise column.

These are the services relating to this area:

• Production of sounds and noises
• Production of thematic background noises
• Environment reconstruction
• Partial/total reconstruction of noise column
