Audio Mixing & Mastering

Here is how this works in practice. Brazilian feature, broadcast, and streaming masters run through a small concentration of stages with serious console pedigree. Globo Estúdios PROJAC in Rio anchors the largest audio post pipeline in Latin America with Pro Tools, Avid S6, and Avid MTRX rooms feeding daily telenovela broadcast for Globo, RedeTV!, Band, SBT, Record, and Globoplay. O2 Filmes finishes the Meirelles slate from City of God to The Two Popes, Conspiração and Gullane mix São Paulo features and ad spots, and Casablanca Studios plus Quanta Pós-Produção handle boutique cinema and SVOD jobs.

Here is what we have to work with. On the ground, we set up session prep across these vendors. Examples have iZotope RX restoration prep, Nuendo dialogue beds, music stem versioning, loudness compliance at -24 LKFS broadcast and -14 LUFS Spotify/Apple/streaming targets, and ITU-calibrated reference checks before lockup. Cross-border top passes route through Skywalker Sound on the 12-hour LA-GRU corridor when projects need an extra mastering pass for theatrical or sites certification.

Here is the short of it. Brazilian mixing inherits a layered musical custom that shapes how we way mastering. Tom Jobim's Black Orpheus score, Egberto Gismonti, Hermeto Pascoal, Heitor Villa-Lobos, Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, Naná Vasconcelos, and Antônio Pinto's Meirelles collaborations all live in the same studios that handle our work today. Alongside today's Anitta, Pabllo Vittar, Marília Mendonça, and Gusttavo Lima sessions. UNESCO-recognised samba de Roda from the Recôncavo Bahia, frevo, MPB, Tropicália, forró, and funk carioca stay reference points for music balance and percussion translation.

Here is the layout. On the ground, Final masters are wrapped to AS-11 for Brazilian terrestrial broadcast under ISDB-Tb, IMF for Netflix Brasil, Apple TV+ Brasil, Disney+ Brasil, Amazon Prime Video Brasil, and Paramount+ Brasil. Plus DCP packages for Festival do Rio, Mostra de São Paulo, Festival de Brasília, and the Kikito-awarding Festival de Gramado. ANCINE sign-ups, ANATEL compliance, and LGPD residency on AWS São Paulo and Azure Brazil South are managed inside the workflow.
