Andy Poirier
“I booked a consultation with Audio Animals and let them know what my plans were and how much I was willing to spend. They not only saved me a BOAT LOAD of money and headache, but also took the time to go through my project in detail. They helped me pinpoint my weak links and advised me on the equipment that would benefit me. In the end, together we engineered a setup that really improved my tracking and mixing capabilities without buying all the excess I thought I needed.”
Danny Kirsch
“For me my consultancy was all about saving money. I have no idea how to build a studio from scratch and wasn’t prepared to spend my money with trial and error to find out. Paul from Audio Animals advised me on materials, where to get them and how much I would need. I ended up building a studio that was built to a similar spec to his, which we all know is one of the best in the world. Without his expertise and knowledge I wouldn’t have the studio I have today. Money well spent.”
David Spill
“I contacted Audio Animals initially to enquire about their PMC speakers. It was important to me to get first hand user experience on them before spending £50k on monitors. A small price to pay considering the huge investment I was making. Paul walked me through his PMC system and advised me on exactly what I would need to achieve the best possible monitoring. He even introduced me to a PMC dealer who saved me a good amount of money.”
Jason Lattuca
“I recently built a project studio, I called the guys at Audio Animals to ask their advice, they came down to my studio and completely reconfigured and calibrated all my software and hardware. They were on it all day and didn’t stop from 8am to 5:30pm. They were well mannered, super respectful and appreciative of my property and equipment. Super polite and professional and got my studio running like a dream. Brilliant service.”
AVID S4/S6 SETUP & INTERGRATION CONSULTATION FAQ
What Is Included In The Avid S4/S6 Setup & Integration Consultation?
The consultation includes comprehensive assistance with the installation, configuration, and optimisation of your Avid S4 or S6 console. Paul Ashmore will guide you through every step, from hardware setup and software integration to workflow customisation. You’ll receive personalised, hands-on guidance tailored to your studio environment and production needs.
How Long Does The Consultation Typically Last?
The in-person consultation is a comprehensive 10-hour session, ensuring a full installation and optimisation of your console. For online video consultations, the duration is flexible based on your needs. A full installation and optimisation typically requires at least 8 hours, covering everything from unboxing to final configuration. If you’re focusing solely on workflow optimisation and user training, a 4-hour session is recommended.
Can The Consultation Be Done Remotely?
Yes, the consultation can be done remotely via video call. While an in-person session is often more efficient for a full installation and optimisation, Paul can effectively guide you through the process using his own Avid S4 as a visual reference. Remote consultations allow for detailed, step-by-step instructions, but they do require you to perform the physical tasks with Paul’s guidance.
What Are The Benefits Of An In-Person Consultation Versus Online?
An in-person consultation allows Paul to handle the entire installation, setup, and optimisation process himself, ensuring everything is done efficiently and correctly. With an online video consultation, Paul provides detailed guidance and instructions, but you’ll be performing the physical tasks yourself. While both options are effective, the in-person service offers a more hands-on, streamlined experience.
Do I Need Any Specific Equipment Ready Before The Consultation?
For a full installation consultation, you’ll need the Avid S4 or S6 console in its packaging, ready to be set up. Having the user manual on hand is also recommended. If the console is already assembled, you just need to be seated at the console and ready to proceed. The required equipment will vary depending on the scope and focus of the consultation.
What Kind Of Post-Session Support Is Available?
After the session, if you have any questions or encounter technical issues, we’re here to help. You can reach out for support and we’ll assist with troubleshooting or answering any follow-up questions. If more in-depth assistance is needed, we can arrange an additional consultation to dive deeper into specific topics. For minor queries, we’re happy to provide quick answers via email.
How Soon Can I Schedule A Consultation?
Paul is relatively flexible with scheduling. Consultations can often be arranged on short notice, depending on availability. If you need assistance urgently, just let us know and we’ll do our best to accommodate your timeline. We aim to be as accommodating as possible to fit your deadlines and schedule.
Will The Consultation Cover Both Hardware And Software Setup?
Yes, the consultation will cover both hardware and software. Setting up hardware and configuring software each require a certain amount of time, so we recommend booking a consultation for at least four hours if you want to cover both comprehensively. The exact duration will depend on your specific needs and how quickly we can progress through each step. The consultation is fully customisable to focus on whatever you need within the allotted time.
What If I Encounter Problems After The Session?
While it’s unlikely you’ll encounter major issues, if you do, we’re here to help with troubleshooting and advice for smaller problems. For significant issues beyond our control, you may need to contact Avid directly. If there’s a complex problem that requires more in-depth support, we can arrange another consultation session to diagnose and resolve the issue.
How Do I Prepare For An On-Site Consultation?
To prepare for an on-site consultation, ensure your Avid S4 or S6 console and all related equipment are on-site and ready. Have all the necessary cabling and any other components you plan to install. Keep the user manual and all documentation handy, as these contain important codes and details. If the console is already assembled, the main thing you’ll need is the manual and related documentation.
