KER Geeks

As you know, we don't only do 5.1 surround mixing, but also 7.1 surround and binaural mixing since 2015. By applying these innovative mixing techniques to video games sound effects, special events' soundtracks and international artist's songs, we are constantly pushing our expertise beyond the limits of stereo mixing!
