Penguin Random House remotely records audiobooks with Dubway's mobile recording rig

Publishing giant Penguin Random House has been in close collaboration with Dubway Studios’ Manhattan facility to record several authors reading their own works for audiobook releases. One of these books, the excellent Honey & Venom from author Andrew Coté, has just been released, and was recorded entirely remotely during the current pandemic.

Engineer Louis Fisher conducted the recordings using one of our newly configured mobile recording rigs, dubbed Orbiters, allowing us to set up a recording environment in a client’s location and then engineer the recording from a distance, guaranteeing a safe workflow. Studio head Al Houghton assisted with designing and deploying the system, and worked closely with Penguin producers Dan Zitt and Oh Kee Kolwitz to ensure quality throughout.

You can find the book available at the links above (as well as an excellent piece on Andrew Coté from NPR). Happy listening!
