The Sound of Andor Season 2

15 May 2025
Listen to the episode

Supervising Sound Editor, Re-recording Mixer, and Sound Designer Mixer David Acord and Supervising Sound Editor and Dialogue & ADR Supervisor Margit Pfeiffer join us to discuss the powerful, visceral sound of the final season of "Andor." As one of the darkest and most grounded series in the Star Wars galaxy, "Andor" features a deeply cinematic soundscape — ranging from brutal hand-to-hand combat to haunting silence, immersive crowd scenes, and intentionally fuzzy radio transmissions. David and Margit break down their collaborative process, the evolution of the sonic language across the series, and how they used Dolby Atmos® to bring audiences even deeper into the world of espionage, rebellion, and sacrifice.

We want to make sure that the audience feels the threat and the danger of these weapons. The impact of those weapons has to be violent… A laser whiz by has to strike fear.

David Acord, Supervising Sound Editor, Re-recording Mixer, and Sound Designer, "Andor"
