About Our Audio Facility
NIFCO boasts an audio editing facility that is capable of many configurations. The CPUs for the editing systems are remotely located so there is no extraneous noise generated in the editing room. The editing rooms had been acoustically designed and are near identical clones of each other. We have a large sound effects library available to each suite managed by Sound Miner. All of the suites are connected to the NIFCO ISIS media network for ease of workflow within the facility.
