Portadrive Captures Ferrari's New Model

One of Europe's leading suppliers of professional audio equipment to the broadcast sector, post production facilities, recording studios, film and TV sound recordists, and industrial and education establishments, HHB has supplied the award-winning sound designers Radium Audio with its HHB Portadrive Location Sound Recorder.
It is being used to capture the evocative sound of the new Ferrari California for the car's pre-launch, 'teaser' website.
Travelling at speeds of more than 200 mph on a test track in northern Italy, Radium Founder and Creative Director Andrew Diey recorded the car throughout its rev ranges, using microphone placements developed over many years of experience in sound design for successful car-based Playstation and Xbox games, and other related projects.
"The project demanded eight channels of high definition recording in a portable package, so the Portadrive was the obvious choice," reported Andrew.
"It was recommended to us by colleagues in the film and gaming industries and I have to say it did a brilliant job. It was very straightforward to use, and made it very easy for us to audition the recordings as we went," he said.
Based in London, Radium Audio Ltd is a music and sound design company, supplying award winning audio for market leading agencies, cg and animation houses, digital companies, game developers, brands and manufacturers.
The results will certainly stir the emotions of every petrolhead, and can be heard at www.ferraricalifornia.com
