Chris Plourde, Producer, (“Muppets Tonight,” “The PJ’s,” “Greg The Bunny,” “On the Spot,” “Sid the Science Kid,” and many others):
“Peter Cole is a very talented mixer, and a technological and work-flow genius. His establishment of a virtual studio has allowed us to use the best talent of both Peter and his colleagues at the lowest rates. At the end of the day, it’s not about the building, or the equipment or the client services, it’s about getting the most quality for the dollar. Peter and his team offer more quality in their work than almost any other large, traditional post sound situation out there.”
“What makes for great sound in a project is not the bells and whistles or a million dollar mixing board, but what’s in between the ears of your mixer. Peter is a guy who can hear what needs to be there, and what doesn’t. It’s not the equipment that makes the man, it’s the man that makes the equipment. It’s always better to find the guy who makes the project sound right every time. Peter Cole is that guy for me.”
Lee Supercinski, Producer, “Futurama,” FOX Television:
“Peter makes every client feel like they are the most important. As a producer, it's wonderful to deal with Peter because he is the studio and the mixer. Peter offers more flexibility than a traditional post house because he is able to work with us on our deadlines and we're not forced to adhere to a strict schedule on when mixing time is available and we're not fighting for our mixer with other clients (at least until the word gets out on how good Peter is!).”
“Peter mixed the majority of the first 72 episodes of our ‘Futurama’ series
when we were on Fox. He is extremely fast, but also discerning at the same
time. Our dialogue sounds warm and cuts through the huge action sequences that we often have in our shows. We've always been extremely satisfied with the quality of Peter's mixes, and he was our first choice for re-recording mixer when production restarted on the direct-to-DVD ‘Futurama movies.’ Our mix playbacks are supervised by our Executive Producers Matt Groening and David X. Cohen, and Peter is excellent when it comes to working through the notes on a mix and communicating back and forth with the creative team.”
“Also, Peter is on the cutting edge of technology. We switched to high
definition delivery with the new ‘Futurama’ movies and for the first time
we're delivering a 5.1 surround mix. Peter worked with our editorial and
post production sound team to create a very efficient work flow and helped
us ease the headache of transitioning to HD and dealing with the multiple
delivery formats we were required to make. We were doing all of this during
a very tight deadline on our first movie with no room for error, so having
Peter onboard was invaluable.”
