STUDIO A
Studio A features a Power Station tuned live room large enough to track a 3 or 4 piece band including drums. The Studio A control room houses our custom modified Soundcraft Series 1600 console with a compliment of both custom built and respected name-brand outboard gear. The room operates on 24 channels of simultaneous I/O with the ability to run an indeterminate number of virtual tracks in the Sonar X1 DAW environment.
STUDIO C
Our Studio C production/mix room is built around the same award-winning Powerstation acoustic sound treatment as Studio A. It includes a custom modified AHB System8 console and Lynx AD/DA converters. Also present are a large number of synthesizers, keyboard workstations, drum machines, effects boxes, virtual instruments, sound libraries, and other assorted "noise makers".
STUDIO K
Studio K is our secondary production room. This is complete with a Mac computer running Logic Pro. Studio K is outfitted with additional guitars and percussion instruments as well as a compliment of software based effects and virtual instruments not present in our other studios.
