Equipment


Our studio has been basically optimized for recording live music. This means that we are able to simultaneously record several instruments on multiple tracks. We use the British-made Focusrite sound cards and microphone preamplifiers. In addition to digital technology, we apply external analogue dynamics processors and effects, and last but not least, we use the English-made Studiomaster mixing console. In order to record music for commercials, narratives and create synced recordings in the live room, we apply an image projector. Magnetic tape recorders, cassette recorders and LP players are used for multiple archiving and sound restoration.
