Equipment

Following the finest traditions of the 1950s, 60s, and 70s, our signal chain has been built from the ground up, without compromise. Modular devices were designed and handcrafted in collaboration with Gem Audio Labs, resulting in analog equipment full of character and premium components, blending classic tones with innovative solutions.

To ensure the highest signal quality, we offer a range of preamplifiers, placed directly in the recording rooms near the microphones and controlled remotely from the console. This approach allows very low-level signals – prone to distortion – to be amplified at the very start of the signal path, preserving their natural color and fidelity. Two types of analog equalizers are available, each creatively combining the functionality and character of iconic designs from past decades.

Outboard i DAW

Among other outboard gear, we offer tube Retro Instruments 176 , Empirical Labs Distressor EL8X, Thermionic Culture Rooster, Thermionic Culture Snow Petrel, Gem Audio Labs Preceptor, and a variant of the Pultec-style Retro Instruments 2a3 tube EQ.

Digital processing is handled on a stable Avid Pro Tools HD Native system, paired with a high-end Apogee Symphony II converter, complementing the studio’s analog setup perfectly.

Connections

For signal routing we use equipment from the Swiss company Ghielmetti. All the internal connections between the studio spaces and signal cables are made by Mogami. In order to organise and separate the electrical connections in the studio, we have made separate power circuits to supply the lighting, studio equipment, instruments and amplifiers, as well as personal devices.
