Numerical Sound is a company owned by Sound Architect Ernest Cholakis. It is a research and application based business that works with a wide range of classical to contemporary music and film composers and music software industry companies. The scope of its sound research is applied to many unique sound projects, several of which result in innovative sampling CD's -an example being the DNA Groove Templates that have been adopted by all the major audio/mini sequencers. Currently reverb impulses dominate Numerical Sound's research. What is a Sound Architect ?
