Munro Acoustics return to BBC Post Production, Bristol

UK studio design company, Munro Acoustics, has completed the monitor installation and acoustic refurbishment of a new audio dubbing theatre at BBC Post Production in Bristol.
The project involved the installation of a 5.1 surround sound monitoring system based on custom Dynaudio Acoustics C3F main monitors, BM6 surround speakers and custom T1000 amplifiers. This is identical to the system Munro Acoustics installed in October 2002, when it completed the acoustic refurbishment of a similar dubbing theatre.
The refurbishment is part of general expansion of the audio facilities at BBC Post Production in Bristol, where there are now two main dubbing theatres with foley facilities and a third, smaller, dubbing theatre with a commentary booth. The complex also houses three track lay areas. Both the large dubbing theatres are equipped with AMS Neve MMC consoles, while the smaller theatre has an AMS Neve Logic 3 console.
Andy Munro, head of Munro Acoustics, adds; "The acoustic refit was planned and pre fabricated in one month and then completely installed over a three week phased period, alongside the BBC team. The monitors have already won some plaudits at Bristol and there is a general air of acceptance that the sound is both revealing and accurate."
BBC Bristol was recently designated a centre of excellence for documentaries and is now the permanent home of the award-winning Natural History Unit. The audio facilities at BBC Post Production are used to post produce top end dramas and documentaries such as Natural World and Casualty.
