History
David Schmidt started his audio career after graduation from the Audio Engineering program at American University in Washington, DC. He joined the staff of MVI Post and was quickly in demand and earned the respect of clients such as The Discovery Channel, The National Geographic Channel, and The History Channel. 5.1 surround sound mixes for Discovery HD Theater mixed by David were some of the first Dolby Digital Surround HD productions to appear on television. David also mixed high profile shows, such as the BBC productions of Walking with Dinosaurs and the live Raising the Titanic with Jim Cameron. In 2004, David opened Acapella Audio in Asheville, North Carolina to better serve his clients. He currently mixes in stereo and surround for clients from the DC area as well as many local and national clients. David draws on his studio's high-quality sfx library and offers clients music composition. In addition to his mixing, David is frequently called upon for location sound.
