SOMETIMES, MORE IS MORE

Lots of gear doesn't make the music better. But a nice variety of carefully selected and well maintained equipment is a must in a studio environment with different requests in terms of sounds, style, personal tastes and behavior. Take your time and check out our gear list, if you want to know more about our tools.
We love the combination of today's workflow - with modern, powerful DSP based DAWs, offering total recall and fast file delivery - along with some good old faithful analog gear that lasts for decades without any loss of value. Working entirely «in the box» (ITB) or «outside the box» (OTB), all the options are there. Can't beat that.

HARDWARE

Some decades ago, music was only produced with hardware, since computers and software were not available at that time. Hardware still plays an important role in today's music production process. Hardware lasts for many years, doesn't need updates, is never outdated. Some vintage gear even gains in value and adds that certain audio fingerprint that makes the difference between great and breathtaking.

SOFTWARE

There's no way to seriously produce music without using professional software today. Period. Despite its downside (shorter life cycle, upgrades, higher sensitivity, security etc.), modern software works pretty stable and offers a great workflow. Customers love the fast and user-friendly production process. Almost everything is possible - in other words: We never have to say «no» to our clients…
