MTV Reality Show Gets IAC Star Treatment
 Bronx, NY (October 5) - -What do you get when you take the pier on the Hudson River, add a rock band, and a ‘bubble building’ containing an IAC sound studio? Well, if you’re MTV, you get a reality TV show.
When MTV wanted to lock the band into a ‘bubble’ for 3 weeks, and not let them out until they produced an album, they turned to studio designer FM Design for a control room. Fran Manzella knew a modular studio from IAC was the only way to score a hit, and meet the aggressive schedule needed to complete the studio on time.
 Working closely and quickly with QuietStar Industries, IAC’s New York representative, Fran Manzella (the designer) and Steve Dutton (the rep) laid out a plan for a 13’ x 17’ studio, complete with Full-Glass studio door, Fabric absorption wall panels and RPG Diffusers.
After receiving the order in March ‘07, the booth was installed mid-May, ready for TV. And what were the results of the efforts? Four episodes and a concert for New York City. Last we heard, there was talk of ‘Band in a Bubble 2’. Good thing they bought a modular booth. It’s now in storage, ready for an encore.
