A new secondary studio space features Neumann monitors, a 32 channel Focusrite RedLine16 Interface connected to a remote-controlled pre-amp, the Focusrite MP8R, and a dedicated analog mastering chain built into a 500 Series Lunchbox. These feature paired API EQ's and compressors, SSL preamps and an Elysium Saturator.
The studio will give students a dedicated second recording and production space, allowing them to record a full-band setup in a connected live room, tied with live video connections. The studio will be kitted out with analog synthesisers, electronic drum kit and a host of other instruments and sound processing equipment, creating a comfortable and versatile recording, production and mastering space.
