Customer Showcase: SIlas Hite

Emmy-winning composer Silas Hite has scored music for film, TV, video games, and commercials, and when he relocated from California to his home state of Ohio a couple years ago, it was crucial that he could have an acoustically treated space to continue that work. "I need to be able to record, mix, and deliver at the highest-quality level audio possible," he says. "This means having great-sounding rooms."

As Silas began work on his new studio, he soon ran into a sound problem that his initial acoustic treatment wasn't solving. "I was still getting some high frequency flutter in my tracking room," Silas says. "I was fairly certain it was coming from the sound waves bouncing off of the untreated parts of the walls."

Enter Audimute. Silas turned to us for lightweight, sound-absorbing solutions that could treat the flutter echo while also fitting in with the design of his studio. Our Fabric Acoustic Panels wrapped in textiles of Silas's choosing were fastened to various reflective surfaces around the tracking room, while six additional 4' x 4' panels were added to the ceiling of his control room to address additional acoustic issues.

Silas also worked with Audimute to install sound-absorbing material in the space within the double-paned window separating his studio's tracking and control rooms. "The window is handmade and the woodwork is beautiful, so I wanted the [look of the] sound treatment inside the window to complement it," Silas says. "With Audimute, I was able to customize the fabric to my taste."

The outcome is a studio that sounds incredible while also staying true to Silas's aesthetic vision. Thank you, Silas, for letting Audimute be a part of your success story.
