FIXED HINge: Production & Mixing
Welcome to our fixed hinge...It’s pretty great here
its A SPACIOUS small LIVE ROOM: 425 SQ ƒeet and it is a perfect place for me and all the musical nonsense I love to work on TO BE HOUSED IN.
we tracks lots of variables here, from live bands to classical piano music. A BEAUTIFUL 1963 LUGWIG DRUM KIT AND A tip top 1976 Yamaha u1 Piano greets you and it goes from there.
FRANKLY, It is my pride and joy in non human form.
GEAR
WE HAVE A NICE SELECTION OF PREAMPS AND OUTBOARD GEAR (NEVE, API, STAM AUDIO, UNIVERSAL AUDIO) WITH A NICE VOCAL CHAIN THAT INCLUDES THE FLAVOURS OF 1176, LA2A, LA3A AND API 525.
MICROPHONE SELECTION I THINK WORKS GREAT HERE (VINTAGE Neumann:1971 U87 and 1973 m584), AEA RCA 44, TOWNSEND LAB SPHERE, PAIR OF ROYER R 121's, MULTIPLE TUBE MICS, AND MANY OTHERS FOR THE DRUMS AND GUITARS AND STRINGS AND THINGS.
MANY VINTAGE ELECTRIC AND ACOUSTIC GUITAR OPTIONS EXIST, AND IM A LOVER OF MINI SYNTHS, SO LOTS OF THOSE plus a newly aquired mellotron.
I RECORD USING LOGIC X THROUGH UNIVERSAL AUDIO APOLLO CONVERTORS. I USE LOTS OF THE AMAZING UNIVERSAL AUDIO PLUGINS & ALSO LOVE THE SOUNDTOYS, IZOTOPE AND PLUGIN ALLIANCE PRODUCTS.
I MIX THINGS THROUGH A DANGEROUS 2 MIX SUMMING MIXER, WHICH MELDS THE DIGITAL AND ANALOG WORLDS in a nice way.
MANY THANKS TO Long & Mcquade pro, IZOTOPE, plugin alliance, native instruments AND UNIVERSAL AUDIO FOR THE AMAZING AND CONTINUED SUPPORT.
DISCLAIMER
I AM NOT A "REGULAR STUDIO" PER SAY, BUT I HAVE A STUDIO SPACE I LOVE.
