Building on our legacy as Frozen Music Studio, we design advanced acoustic environments from recording studios and home theatres to auditoriums and corporate facilities engineering clarity, silence, and immersive listening through acoustic simulation and precision AV system design
Pitchbend Studio is an architectural acoustics and AV design consultancy founded by Architect & Acoustic Designer Harshad Prabhakar Mehendale in Pune.
Being both a musician and a designer, his work bridges science and listening experience. After working across leading recording studios in Mumbai, Delhi and Chennai, the focus was clear spaces should not just look good, they should sound right.
Every project we undertake is customised. No two rooms have identical acoustic behaviour, and therefore no two solutions are the same. Our design process combines acoustic calculation, simulation and real world testing to achieve predictable and measurable results.
"We engineer sound and integrate technology seamlessly within architecture."
Scientific analysis of room dimensions, materials and geometry to achieve controlled reverberation and optimal clarity.
Prevent external noise from entering and internal sound from leaking using calculated wall, ceiling and structural isolation techniques.
Custom engineered loudspeaker placement, video systems, projection design and signal routing based on room acoustics.
On site measurement, tuning and calibration ensuring the system performs exactly as designed.
















Every project begins with acoustic analysis and spatial calculations to ensure predictable sound performance.

We design how a space sounds, feels and performs not just install equipment.

Each system is tailored to room dimensions, seating layout and usage requirements.

Speech and music remain balanced and intelligible from the first seat to the last.

Audio visual systems are integrated into architecture while maintaining clean interior design.

We manage concept, coordination and final tuning with architects and contractors.
We study the room size, seating layout, materials and usage to plan optimal auditorium acoustics and AV system design for clear, balanced sound.
Our acoustic consultants coordinate with architects and project teams to design stage lighting, audio-video and sound systems that fit perfectly into the building.
After installation, we tune and test the systems on site to ensure speech clarity, sound coverage and real-world performance across every seat.
