STUDIO D
our primary stereo and
Dolby Atmos mixing room
all in the most precise-sounding
room in our facility.
Studio D is our primary stereo and Dolby Atmos mixing room. It’s a studio built from the ground up with the most precise acoustics in mind, which makes it the best room in our facility to do the final quality control of your music.
Stereo monitoring is done via a pair of ATC SCM110ASL Pro speakers, flush mounted into the front wall. This system is super precise, yet musical, so clients in attendance will quickly get a grip on what’s going on.
A Neumann KSM system paired with an AVID MTRX Studio allows for flexible and comprehensive Atmos monitoring.
With an Apogee Symphony Mk2 connected to 32 channels of the best outboard gear in the world and an AVID EUCON controller system, mixing in this room is not just easy - it’s fun!
Having a very user-friendly setup allows this room to be booked for final QC of your mixes - just bring your Mac laptop and in no time you’ll be able to do the final touches on your mixes with full confidence.
