Re: [Sursound] Accompanying video display

[Douglas Murray]

As a film sound designer and fan of spatial sound, I think it’s very important 
for cinema sound to be mixed and reviewed in the same type of environment as a 
movie theatre, in other words with a projection screen and the front speakers 
behind the "acoustically transparent" screen. Working with a hard screen like a 
big TV means placing the front speakers outside the screen, which leads to 
difficulties in correctly panning across the front speakers.

For cost reasons many edit and design rooms are equipped with flat panel 
displays of various types. That easily delivers the best picture quality for 
the money. If that is what you do I’d place the LCR monitors below or above the 
screen with the L and R speakers’ high frequency drivers placed within the 
screen area. 

Best of luck!

[Sursound] Accompanying video display

[Spice, Graham]

Hello friends-
   I’m helping to design a new studio on the campus where I work. We are
installing a 7.1.4 setup which is very exciting. I’m looking for assistance
on what type and size video to install.

   The room is 14’ tall, 11.5’ wide, and 19.5’ deep. What type of video
would you suggest (screen vs projector) and how large? We plan to use this
space for vpostproduction work for video and gaming as well as a teaching
studio for immersive audio so having a large, legible screen is very
important.

Thank you very much for your input-
Graham Spice
