HARDWARE COLLECTION
We love gear so much :
vintage analog, early digital, samplers & new ones :)
THE DESK
We need to talk about our mixing desk. It is a ZAHL AM1 hand made in germany by the finest tech. Used by Aphex Twin or Niels Fram to new a few, that desk is quite something in term of sound quality. Looking for a vintage sound? That is not what it does. It is super clean with extremely sharp EQs. Ours comes with 10 stereo channels, 5 mono channels and one very special CV channel allowing us to communicate with our modular synths.
DANTE READY
Our recording studio in Auvergne is DANTE READY, allowing us full of crazy features, including real time recording with other studios in the world.
