The Lower Control Room has four video (3 cameras and sync, BNC) and eight audio (8 mono/4 stereo pairs, XLR) through-wall directly to the Adobe Production Premium CS4 Suite, switcher and mixing console.  The switcher allows recording to mini-DV, S-VHS and direct to hard disk. The Lower Control Room has an XLR audio feed from each of the Audio Booths, one audio booth rigged for voiceovers and one for music and effects.

The Upper Control Room also has available four video and eight audio through-wall to the mixing console.  The Upper Control Room includes 6 audio inputs (four from the Main Floor and two from the Audio Recording Booths) routed to a 16-channel mixer, patchbay, Adobe Production Premium CS4 digital media workstation and Sonar Producer Edition digital audio workstation. The Upper Control Room also allows real-time mixing and posting of MIDI, including Dimension Pro Digital Sample synthesizers and a master pressure sensitive MIDI keyboard.

Two Audio Booths are provided for Voiceover and Foley Effects recording, with Foley Booth able to double as a second voiceover booth.  Both Booths have viewing windows to the Main Floor and each other.

Animation and digital layering is provided via a high-speed Ethernet network connection between the Non-linear editor and Animation/Layering Workstations.

In addition, IMC Studios IT and Production data are sharable between all workstations, full data backups of system daily with a 1 week rotation and quarterly rotation.  Long term data storage moved to CD-R or DVD-R, with full librarian search and retrieval services.
