Control room

ACOUSTIC DESIGN, SPACE AND COMFORT

Our spacious control room (65m2) provides a precise listening environment. Care has been taken with the acoustic design: most of the primary reflections are focused away from the listening area and secondary reflections are diffused by a rear wall diffusor. Low frequency absorption is realized using panel absorbers, resulting in a tight low-end. The reverb time of the control room is even and short down to very low frequencies.

We have multiple monitor systems covering near, mid and far-field going from Auratones and NS-10’s, ATC SCM25’s  to a full sized Tannoy Dreadnought system.

The main console is a Daniel Flickinger N24 built in 1969 featuring discrete class-A circuitry. The MCI JH428 sidecar is from ´75 and is joined in all major functions to the Flickinger. We have a total amount of 40 inputs on the two consoles. Both desks are inline consoles, so you can return 40 channels for the monitor mix.

CENTRAL PATCHBAY FOR EASY CONTROL OF SIGNAL FLOW

Our extensive patchbay allows to interconnect anything between the rooms, the effect rack, the consoles and the multitrack machines and the DAW. Most of the patch bay’s signal path is normalised, so it’s easy to get started.

There’s a custom multitrack-DAW-console (24 in and out) multi-pin patch connector to allow to set up the studio either analog, digital or hybrid, and this in seconds !
