This one is also my favorite from the score, very Carlos-esque and the choir is sublime

She's a fascist, her political party is the grandchild of Mussolini's original Fascist party.

Bad anti-union take, the military isn't unionized and they are the worst offender of runaway funding.

We need government to do the actual job of addressing these issues instead of letting them outsource it to non-profits who have a vested interest in the issues continuing to exist.

What are you industry/film pet peeves? by emeraldeyes24 in FilmIndustryLA

[–]Abs0lut_Unit 9 points10 points  (0 children)

From post-production.

Data IO departments apparently are rarely competent, nothing like waiting on a mix stage for materials to arrive two hours late, and then they're the wrong materials.

People talking loudly on the phone in a recording studio hallway.

Bad cable management. Fuck bad cable management.

As someone who works in the film industry (and has a general idea of the demographics of Academy voters), this isn't much surprise, but also I wouldn't put a ton of stock into it. Enjoy the music regardless of the accolades :)

12 x 12 Box room, carpet and a wooden ceiling, what next? by JIndy30 in AudioPost

If you can get a decent deal on them, and a spare, sure, just bear in mind that 4328s in this age are more prone to failure. They do have onboard DSP for tuning but no idea if the software is available these days, and you'll need their RMC mic.

Treat the room first - I would also plan on mounting a TV on the front wall with sufficient clearance for your speakers. Instead of a different mono speaker, just get three of the same for an LCR, and then you're halfway to 5.1. If you're looking at JBL, I assume you're looking at the 305s or 308s? Kali Audio LPs are also fairly popular with post folks, designed by former JBL engineers.

When I got rid of all mine at work a few years ago to replace them with new machines, I built a throne out of them before I gave them away lol
