RECORDING EQUIPMENT

"The Warmth of Analog"

Some folks still prefer the warm sound of analog recording. We understand because we started with our trusted MS-16 reel-to-reel sixteen track machine back in 1989...when there was no other way to record! Although technology has moved forward since then, there are still some who like the sound of saturated tape for certain types of music. If, like many of today's top recording stars, you want the best of both worlds, we're here to make it happen. We can capture to tape, transfer tracks into Digidesign Pro Tools or Sonar 3.11, and apply as many plug-in effects as you can handled. Once your mix is finalized, we can transfer the two track back to any format you want...analog or digital!
