STUDIOS
A studio is more than a collection of gear....which we have plenty of;
Mics, Console, Recorders....
It's about having a place where things can happen...and things are ready to go.
There's no need for sharing headphones or moving mics from one instrument to the next.
On long term projects equipment is left untouched between sessions...
It's the "ULTIMATE RECALL".
