Both want exclusive use. Can you get the work they actually need done?

Recording studio / Planning desk

One after another, without exclusive use

Complete speaker calibration and a narration within 6 slots. Each task must be uninterrupted; do not shorten both teams' needs.

Recording team says: “Nobody may make a sound while we record.”

Actual need:Recording one passage takes 3 uninterrupted quiet slots. The voice artist is available from slot 2 and can start later.
