ArtEffect Audioproduktion is a Cologne-based audio post-production studio, specialising in cinema and television blockbusters, documentaries, series and trailers.
It’s owner Peter Schröder Recently invested in a Yamaha Nuage post-production system, which he is so satisfied with that a second one is likely to follow soon.
Peter founded the studio by in 1997, which features three control rooms and two recording rooms. Its work concentrates on sound design, automatic dialogue replacement (ADR), Foley effects and the optimisation of sound recorded on location. Peter saw Nuage for the first time at the biennial international Tonmeistertagung convention in 2012, the first time the show had been held at the Cologne exhibition centre Koelnmesse. He was immediately impressed.
“ I had heard about Nuage and, within five minutes of taking a closer look, was convinced by the concept, ” he says. “ It was immediately clear that the way Nuage connects a mixing surface with a DAW is seamless and perfectly executed. ”
When the time came to upgrade ArtEffect’s technical facilities, for Peter there was only one choice. He invested in an NCS500CT Nuage master unit and two NCS500FD fader units, a solution he is very pleased with.
“ We are all really happy with Nuage and were very impressed with how quickly we got used to its workflow, ” he says. “ The functionality is excellent and we’ve so enjoyed working with it that we are definitely considering buying another system for our second studio. ”
