It took them almost a year to find an appropriate place - acceptable dimensions, location and rental fee - way longer than they could have imagined. Walking around the city, they saw hundreds of places that seemed to be good candidates, but every time they approached the landlord, something went wrong. Their idea was to build one recording room, with a control room that can be used for some pre-dubbing and TV mixing, one mixing theatre, Dolby approved, with two editing rooms which would be used both for picture and sound, depending on requests. Here are some pictures of how the space turned out, and a full write up can be found on the Gearslutz forum here
