"The most crucial component in the digital recording environment is high-quality A/D conversion and the most trusted and desirable converters are made by Prism Sound and Apogee." We now use Prism Sound and Apogee Analogue/Digital A/D converters for monitoring all digital sound sources in the Studio. This includes monitoring during mixdown, re-mixing and mastering .
96
track digital recording.
Our 96 track digital recording system is run on a 'liquidcooled' Apple Mac G5 2.5 GHzDual Processor with 8GB ram and 750GB of HD memory! We use OS X (Tiger) 10.4.7
Our main recording/sequencing package is Digital Performer 5.1 and uses 2 lynx AES cards which plug directly into 24 channels of Prism Sound 'Dream ADA8' A/D and D/A converters.
Internal Signal processing and FX are handled by a powerful six card 'tcPowerCore' Platform.
Although this system is a lot more powerful than Protools, it is Protools compatible, so we are able to import your Protools files here and mix/remix them for you.It is also very easy to transfer files recorded here to any other recording platform (this includes Protools,Logic,Cubase, Cakewalk...etc,etc).
We run a powerful 6 card tcPowerCore platform for all our internal FX and signal processing. Top End Plug-ins include the complete Sony (EQ/filters/inflator/ transient mod) bundle, Altiverb 5, iZotope(Ozone3,trash,Spectron,vinyl).We can retune your vocals (heaven forbid) with Antares 'autotune' or the award winning 'Melodyne' software.
