Senna x Dolby Atmos
"There was no usable car audio—so we built the sound of F1 from scratch.” What does it take to recreate the intensity of Formula 1 legend Ayrton Senna’s world using only sound? A lot of microphones, no space at all, and Dolby Atmos.
In partnership with Netflix, we sat down with Gabriel Gutierrez (sound mixer) and Max Lachmann (sound recordist) to explore the creative and technical work behind the sound design of "Senna". From recording roaring engines on replica cars to crafting immersive rain for every scene, this team shaped a story of memory, motion, and emotion entirely through sound. Watch how Dolby Atmos helped them build a soundscape as fast, focused, and visceral as Senna himself.
