Our Studio

Our studio is a blend of old-school analog warmth and cutting-edge digital precision. We are equipped with industry-leading gear to handle any project, whether it’s vintage vibes or modern hits. Here’s a look at some of the equipment we use to bring your music to life:

  • SSL Fusion: Adds rich, warm color to the stereo bus, enhancing depth and character. This tool is essential during the final stages of mixing to ensure the overall mix has a cohesive and polished sound.
  • Empirical Labs FATSO & Distressor: Known for their warmth and dynamic processing, these units are invaluable for adding character and punch to individual tracks, especially drums and vocals. The Distressor, in particular, is versatile and used extensively in our compression workflow to control dynamics and enhance the sonic character of tracks.
  • Neve 542: Delivers a rich harmonic tape sound, perfect for adding warmth and character. We use this in both mixing and mastering stages to impart a vintage vibe and subtle saturation that makes digital recordings sound more organic.
  • Wes Audio Dione: An analog bus compressor that gives your music the depth it deserves. This is a go-to compressor for our stereo bus, helping glue the mix together and adding the final touch of professional polish.
  • Heritage Audio Successor: Delivers fast, articulate results perfect for modern music dynamics. It’s particularly effective on complex mix elements, providing clarity and definition without losing musicality.
  • Golden Age Comp-2A & Comp-3A: Classic optical compressors known for their vintage character. These are used on vocals and bass to provide smooth, natural compression that enhances the track without sounding too processed.
  • Eve Audio Monitors: Precision monitoring that reveals every nuance in your mix. Accurate monitoring is crucial for making informed mixing decisions, and these monitors provide the clarity and detail needed to fine-tune every element of your mix.
  • Maag EQ4: Known for its air band, enhancing clarity and sheen. This EQ is frequently used during the mastering stage to add a high-end sparkle and presence to the overall mix.
  • Kush Audio Clariphonic: Adds a silky, airy presence to high frequencies. This tool is great for adding a sense of space and openness, particularly to vocals and high-frequency elements.
  • API 550b: Classic discrete 3-band EQ that shapes sound with precision and warmth. Used across various stages, this EQ is versatile and musical, making it a staple in our signal chain for both tracking and mixing.
  • Neumann KH310: Near-field monitors offering detailed and accurate sound reproduction. These monitors are essential for critical listening, allowing us to hear exactly what is happening in the mix.
  • Dutch & Dutch 8c: Main monitors that provide exceptional accuracy and soundstage in the mix. These are used for final mix checks, ensuring that the mix translates well across different playback systems.
  • RME Audio Interfaces: Ensuring pristine sound quality and reliable performance. High-quality conversion and reliable performance are key to capturing and monitoring audio without compromise.
