Sound Lounge Reveals New ADR Stage in New York City
The redesigned space pairs cutting-edge technology with comfort and collaboration
Sound Lounge is raising the bar for ADR in New York City. Fresh off a full studio renovation, the audio post powerhouse has unveiled its brand-new ADR Stage. Larger and more technically advanced, the stage is designed with client experience at its core.
“This new studio elevates everything we’re already known for at Sound Lounge: a client focused experience, and seamless tech,” said ADR Mixer Patrick Christensen. “We want our clients to feel relaxed, confident, and taken care of from the moment they step off the elevator.”
With nearly 20 years of ADR expertise, Sound Lounge crafted a high-end environment that is designed with collaboration in mind. The room’s layout has been turned 90 degrees for improved sight lines between talent and the control room. A re-engineered talkback system enhances communication across rooms and remote sessions alike.
The recording stage is larger, sporting 300 square feet (18’x16’) of recording space and a 115-inch projection screen, making it loop-group friendly and built to accommodate directors, editors, and talent with ease. Theater-quality M&K speakers provide a cinematic playback experience, ensuring dialogue fits seamlessly into the final mix.
“Tight post calendars and busy talent schedules can make records a challenge,” noted Executive Producer Rob Browning. “It’s easy to build a room, but a space is only as good as the team running the session. Whether it’s a child actor recording for the first time or an Oscar-winning actress between Broadway performances, there’s no team with a better mix of technical expertise and interpersonal acumen.”
Behind the scenes, the latest Pro Tools software and hardware ensure bulletproof stability and unparalleled efficiency. Custom acoustical treatments blend form and function, creating a professional and comfortable atmosphere perfect for high end talent and projects.
As Sound Lounge settles into its new space, the team encourages clients to experience the ADR stage for themselves. From tours of the redesigned studio to fully booked sessions, they’re excited to showcase what’s next in audio post.
