The
popularity of surround-sound home theatre has created a tremendous opportunity
for new higher-resolution recording formats. Super Audio Compact Disc,
or SACD, is a high-resolution music format developed by Sony and Philips.
SACD represents major advances in music playback by making a dramatic
improvement in the resolution of digital audio; many listeners who consider
digital sound to be harsh or too bright find SACD to sound more like
analog playback. SACD also makes it possible to achieve high-resolution
surround-sound and stereo playback from the same disc; each SACD can
contain a stereo CD layer, playable on any CD player, plus an SACD layer
with stereo and surround SACD programs. These three separate programs
on a single disc open up tremendous creative opportunities for artists
and producers. For acoustic recording, surround playback moves us much
closer to a full re-creation of the experience of "being there".
 Soundmirror is one of the leaders in SACD location recording and post-production. Our engineers have helped to develop many of the proven techniques for successful surround recording of classical and other acoustic performances, achieving new levels of realism and impact. We have also continued our long tradition of working closely with the leading pro audio companies who make our production tools. Field experience with the latest equipment enables us to provide more reliable service with this new technology. SACD can also be of great value in remastering catalog titles, either in stereo or surround. SACD can breathe new life into many classic recordings, whether the original masters are digital or analog, stereo or multitrack. Our engineers can advise you as to how best to use SACD for remastering titles from your catalog. SACD and its new creative potential should be an integral part of the planning for almost every new recording project. We can help you decide how to use it to your advantage. |
