Questions about TFA
What does TFA stand for?
TFA stands for Top Format Amsterdam. We started in 1975 as Top Format in Haarlem and now work as TFA from the Houthavens in Amsterdam.
Is TFA Studio the same as Two-Factor Authentication?
No. Two-Factor Authentication, also known as 2FA or two-step verification, is a safer way to log in. TFA Studio is a studio for audio post-production and sonic branding. We only share the abbreviation. And a soft spot for double-checking.
How do I set up two-factor authentication?
It depends on the account. You'll find step-by-step guidance at CISA. We'd rather help you with your sound than with your password.
What does TFA Studio make?
Sound for commercials, radio and TV, films, podcasts and brands: from sound design and voice-overs to music, Dolby Atmos mixes and music rights.
Where is TFA Studio?
At Koivistokade 26A in the Houthavens in Amsterdam. No login required: just ring the bell. The coffee's on.
