From Control Room A:


Well 2010 ended with a bang for us! We had an exciting year. In November I had the opportunity to head out to San Fran to see what's hot in the new tech gear arena, and was able to bring home some toys for the new year. Ribbons seemed to be the hot item on our list. No, not holiday ribbons, but ribbon microphones (Audio-technica AT4080), and ribbon tweeter speaker systems (Adam A8X). So whats so great about ribbons? They provide a more controlled listening environment, and a new (or old) way to capture sound. We are also enjoying our mid 2010 purchase of the PLAY sample and sound design library, that we have used on all of our large scaled audio design jobs. Also with the help of our friends at Upscale Music we have been working hard refurbishing our main recording console to continue to deliver that sought after analogue sound. Happy New Year! And away we go!
