Our studio philosophy is simple: only the best analogue equipment justifies its place in the signal chain. We carefully curate our collection to offer warmth, depth, and character that pure digital workflows often lack. This approach allows us to capture the nuances of live instruments and vocals, creating recordings that are both technically excellent and sonically inspiring.
To this end we have upgraded all the valves in our retro instruments 176’s:
- RCA 6bc8 [balanced triodes]
- ECC83/12AX7WA-GENERAL ELECTRIC BALANCED [triodes]
- OB2WA/CV4028-EE
- 12BH7A-HARMA RETRO [balanced triodes]
- 5Y3WGTB/6087-GENERAL ELECTRIC 5 STAR
- OB2WA/CV4028-EEV (EEV )
The Retro Instruments Powerstrip now has:
- ECC82/12AU7W-TUNG SOL RI (Tung-Sol RI) [Balanced triodes]
- RCA 6bc8 [balanced triodes]
- ECC83/5751-GENERAL ELECTRIC x2 [balanced triodes]
Hendyamps Michelangelo has been upgraded to:
- ECC83/12AX7A-TUNG SOL RI (Tung-Sol RI) x3 [balanced triodes]
The TLA Classic C2 compressor has possibly the most impressive valves:
- ECC83 Telefunken Diamond Base [balanced triodes]
We cater to a diverse range of musical styles, from bands and vocalists to dance music producers and voice over artists. The common thread is a desire for recordings that possess an authentic and engaging sound. Our hybrid setup provides the flexibility to blend the precision of digital with the rich textures of analogue, allowing us to tailor the sound to each project’s unique needs.
