In short: Granary Digital records ADR and dialogue near Chichester, West Sussex: re-records to picture on a 55-inch screen, animation and game voice sessions, and audio drama, run by an engineer in an acoustically treated room. Quoted per production.

A line re-performed until it disappears.

The location ruined the line. The studio saves it.

Every production has them: the perfect take under a flight path, the script line legal changed in the edit, the mumble that survived every pass until the grade. Fixing dialogue means a treated room, picture playback, a decent microphone matched to the location sound, and someone running the session who works to timecode rather than vibes.

That room is ten minutes from Chichester rather than a day rate and a train to Soho. Sessions are engineer-run, takes are logged against your script, and files leave organised for your dubbing mixer, or our own editor conforms them if you would rather hand the whole problem over.

Questions we get asked

What is ADR?

Automated dialogue replacement: re-recording lines in a studio when the location sound is unusable, the script changed after the shoot, or a broadcast version needs cleaner language. The actor performs to picture until the new line sits naturally in the scene.

How do sessions run?

Your picture plays back on the 55-inch screen, the engineer records takes against it, and you leave with organised, labelled files for your dubbing mixer, or our editor can conform them for you. Directors who cannot attend join over the fibre link.

Can you record animation and game dialogue?

Yes. Character sessions, batch lines and barks record the same way, with takes logged against your script or string IDs so the files drop into your pipeline.

What does it cost?

Quoted per production, like our rain rig, because session length and edit needs vary so much. Tell us the line count, the deliverables and the deadline and you will have a number, usually the same day.

Is it really an ADR stage?

It is an acoustically treated recording room with picture playback and an engineer, ten minutes from Chichester. Productions that would otherwise drive dialogue to London use it for exactly that reason, and we are straightforward about what it is.
