PACIFIC SOUNDWAVES GOES WITH JBL ON NEW MIX STAGE

BURBANK, CA - Pacific Soundwaves (www.pacificsoundwaves.com) has outfitted its feature film mix stage with JBL ScreenArray loudspeakers. The stage is part of a new 11,000-square-foot

facility in Burbank, which also features several ADR stages and a Foley stage. The new space complements Pacific Soundwaves' existing facility in Santa Monica.

The Dolby-tuned feature film mixing stage in Burbank uses JBL 3632 ScreenArray systems for the mid and high frequencies, coupled with JBL 5641 single 15-inch loudspeakers for the low-frequency sections. The LFE channel is the 18-inch JBL 4645C subwoofer, and the surrounds consist of six JBL 8340As.

The stage has been used for the mixing of numerous features, including Time Bomb, which aired on CBS, Disney's The Cheetah Girls 2, and NBC's new series Windfall.

"When building a theatrical room, you want it to translate as well as possible," says Pacific Soundwaves owner Stephen Clark." JBL ScreenArray loudspeakers are in theaters all over the world, so they were the first to come to mind."
