Re: Building a Post & surround system with Protools Le ...need some advice
Looks to me like you're pretty set! The only concern would be the room you're mixing in. Is it acoustically treated? Also, what monitoring system are you using with the speakers, and can it be calibrated? If yes to both, I think you're good to go!

Re: Building a Post & surround system with Protools Le ...need some advice
you're probably going to be needing some monitor control, maybe some Dolby measurement and possibly some Dolby E encoding, depending what work you're doing. You ain't done yet! I would also think about some extra video monitoring, treatment for the room and RTA and SoundMeter in your iPhone for calibration
I couldn't mix without faders but YMMV! |
