Abstract

In the world of audio for picture, the two must combine well to create a believable reality. It has long been known that the visual and audible stimuli are to some degree affected by each other; however, the ways in which these variables interact has not been particularly well documented. This paper presents the results of several controlled experiments, which have dealt with some of the separate variables; individually, and also in various combinations. These experiments relate to the problems of compatibility between cinema and domestic reproduction of audio-visual programmes, and also the compatibility between the different mixing environments, themselves. The need for multi-format mixing rooms has been with us for many years, but the practical realisation of such rooms has not enjoyed much success; principally for lack of a fuller understanding of the subjects under discussion in this paper.
