Equipment

I'm not a big fan of equipment lists on websites, basically because I believe that you shouldn't choose to work with someone based on their equipment. We use professional equipment, that's a given, but more importantly our engineers are professionally educated audio engineers. I've met plenty of people who have very expensive gear who are definitely not professional audio engineers. Education and experience is what sets us apart.

To satisfy your curiosity...

• Computers: Apple MacBook Pros/G5s/G4s/Powerbooks, Dell laptops & desktops, custom built machines...
• Software: Logic, Digital Performer, Digidesign ProTools, WaveLab, AudioDesk, Cubase
• Microphones: Neumann, Schoeps DPA, AKG, Peluso, Josephson, Shure, Audio-Technica
• Preamps: Millennia Media HV-3D and True Precision 8, Neve, and API
• A/D Converters: Prism Sound, Apogee, and Metric Halo

We've recorded in a lot of places over the years... symphonies in concert halls... choral masterpieces in churches... live jazz in restaurants... solo artists in their own living room!

You'd be surprised how many times we've converted a living room into a recording studio and a kitchen into a control room! Basically, we can record wherever you want us to. Wherever you feel comfortable. For many people, that turns out to be in their own house.

Our Approach

We do it your way. Much of our recording is done at live events, our goal is to be invisible. We don't want to get in your way, if we do... tell us! The performing artist has to be comfortable.

If you had to classify our method of recording... you might call it modern minimalist recording. We utilize cutting-edge technology, but our actual manner of operation would probably be more of the historical (traditional) approach to recording acoustic music.

Microphone Placement:
ORTF, XY, A - B Spaced Pair, Spot Miking
How many mic's do we use?... as few as possible, but as many as necessary.
Every recording project is unique... the artist, the acoustics, the program material... our method of recording will be determined by these variables.

If you are sending us audio to be edited/mastered:

Accepted formats:

• CD-R (audio disc) or data discs (either CD-R or DVD) with audio files.
• All major audio file formats/resolutions are accepted... wav/SDII/aiff
• Internet file transfer is also available via our on-line server
