Our custom configured recording console integrates our collection of premium real world mic preamps, compressors and EQ's. What I love about this set up is that you get a wide variety of sonic options all with real time latency free monitoring. All signals are captured via Universal Audio's acclaimed Apollo commercial series DAW which offers best in class digital conversion (click on an input for more info).

Vintage console
Our vintage console was famously used during mix down on the Rolling Stones album Steel Wheels. Due to our large number of premium outboard preamps and signal processors, I custom configured this console to monitor signal from the input list above whereby its' onboard console preamps are bypassed. Only a handful of these fully modular transformer balanced consoles were manufactured by Tascam in the late 70s and early 80s.
