Rush in Dolby Atmos - Reimagining the Classics
September 5, 2024Multi-platinum mixer and engineer Richard Chycki joins us to dive deep into his work with legendary rock bands such as Aerosmith, Alice Cooper, Dream Theater, Mick Jagger, and, of course, the iconic Rush. Richard has been at the forefront of immersive audio with his Dolby Atmos® mixes of Rush classics like “Moving Pictures” and “Signals,” building upon his original surround mixes.
In this conversation with guest host Ben Givarz, Richard shares his process for respecting the creative intent of these timeless tracks while adapting them to Dolby Atmos, ensuring an immersive experience that translates seamlessly across various playback systems. He delves into how Dolby Atmos allows him to emphasize the sonic nuances of Geddy Lee's voice and bass, Alex Lifeson's intricate guitar work, and Neil Peart's legendary drumming, all while maintaining the integrity of the original recordings. Plus, he offers his insights into the future of music mixing, and his excitement for new, original compositions being created in Dolby Atmos from the ground up.
This interview is part of our new series, "Reimagining the Classics."

One of the things about a technology like Dolby Atmos is it gives producers, mixers, engineers and artists a new way to express, creatively. A lot of the work I do is in mixing. And for me, rather than trying to reinvent ways to cram bigger and bigger sessions into two speakers, I now have a lot more real estate to work with. And that's gratifying. And it gives me a lot of new creative energy.
