Gear & Studio

After long decade of collecting, testing and “dusting” variety pieces of gear we decided to go another way of haviing excellent gear.

For mixing and experimenting with sound we fully utilize digital domain effect with some very famous models by companies like Softube (lovely emulation of Tube-Tech gear) or Waves. In these days there is almost impossible to hear difference. Of course there is difference but holding on old and pricey gear is form of fetish.

Other way is to not be relly on our gear. We have basic excellent gear to do our job. But we do not have any idea about next client requirements. It is better to make a rental of some hi-end and pricey gear what we are able to operate than have old fashioned gear without any value.
