A powerful studio built for quality recording. High fidelity digital recording equipment, high resolution plug-ins, and good sounding rooms make what goes into the recorder, come out of the monitors to be heard the way it should be. A musical instrument will only take you half the way there. Getting your music so the gainstage and soundstage are where they should be is what we focus on. Combining professional equipment with tuned, good sounding recording rooms makes for the best possible recording. Your music will sound better. Its just that simple.
RECORDER USED:
PRO TOOLS HD3 192 Khz i/o, and Sync i/o.Their latest ADA converters give you a sound that is the standard of the industry on a Protools system, offering serious artists a quality alternative. It offers a huge track count and 16 Channels of simultaneous input. Plus with HD3, a project will not run into a DSP problem of not having enough power to finish your project. Something to consider when it comes time to mix as this is what makes all the difference.
Having good equipment is not enough. The best recording hardware is useless in a room that does not allow it to isolate the sounds while tracking and mixing. It is the one thing always overlooked by recordists. A good room is not easy to come by and setting up good recording equipment in just any space does not guarantee good results. A control room, crafted and tuned, a true non-vibrating room within a room, gives intimate interaction with the monitors, resulting in maximum phantom imaging and a balanced frequency response. This allows good equipment to work at maximum. With multiple types of monitors, near-field, mid-field, soffit-overhead and mini-cheap radio, there is more than one or two for comparison for your mix. The music is heard at its best. Before committing a project to a studio, consider more than just the equipment.
Versatile sound rooms allow tracking of vocals, live drums, amps, with an extra internal soundproof booth for use by a live band with vocals, or to isolate other performers or instruments. Remote patching to a tall ceiling living room setting and a tiled bathroom is also possible giving a natural "live" tone to the recording.
Music is only as fine as the silence its compared to... The Sons.. Rock, swing, chant or rap, its all music to someone's ears...
