Red Viking Location Sound — Location Sound Mixer & Sound Recordist

About me

Xim Terrassa

Location sound mixer based in Mallorca. I work with national and international productions on multicultural sets, with three native languages — Spanish, Catalan and Swedish — plus fluent English. From feature films to commercials: clean dialogue, solid workflow and absolute calm on set.

About the Lab

I build these apps in my spare time, between shoots, for the sound community — and they are free. If one saves your day on set and you want to help me keep making them, any contribution keeps the Lab running. Thank you!

B SPACE

QUIET ON SET! — Red Viking vs. Set Chaos

Survive the chaos of the set by keeping the dB meter in the safe zone.

Move with arrows or D-pad. A (or SPACE) = shush the noise next to you. B = viking shout that drops the dB fast (has a cooldown).
