The Role of ADR in Films and Television A theatrical sound mix stage is a stage where a large room is used to create the final mix for feature films, which is then presented in theatres with surround sound. ADR studios are extremely sophisticated and are capable of handling of hundreds of audio tracks simultaneously through big mixing consoles combined with top-notch video and film playback devices. ADR may involve the re-recording of dialogue by the original actor once the filming is completed to improve audio quality or reflect dialogue changes. ADR mixers make sure that performers’ lines are accurate and understandable. It is also often regarded as dubbing or looping.
Noise on set often overshadows the dialogues, such as noise on the busy street near the recording studio or in airports.
