Miraval Studios, Correns
Refurbishment of the recording studio created in 1977 by the music composer and pianist Jacques Loussier.
Kahle Acoustics provided full acoustic design services, including development of the acoustic design to achieve state-of-the art studio acoustics, site supervision, measurements and commissioning. The aim was to retain the warm and balanced acoustical ambience of the Live Room while bringing the Control Room up to contemporary acoustical standards. Key tasks included: the integration of monitoring for Dolby Atmos music; acoustical design and detailing for the vibration-isolated monitor mounting in the glass wall; design and detailing of all finishes in the Control Room including membrane absorbers effective down to 20 Hz; and acoustical finishes in the Live Room and Booths.
