  Our                     Control room is housed in an acoustically isolated  
  19  
  ft. cargo box on the rear of our truck.  
    
  COntrol room sounds great!  Plenty of bass trapping and a  
  reliable monitoring environment.  
    
       We offer a self contained audio production facility with state of the  
  art  
  recording and monitoring capability.  
    
  Equipment includes the following:  
  MCI 600 series mixing console with integral patchbay.  
  54 channel 3 way splitter with JEnsen transformers, plenty of snake.  
  Standard  
  interconnections with mains power, both 240 vac and 3 phase.  
    
  High resolution 24 track digital recording.  TAke product to  
  production facility of your choice for final mix downs  
  and/or additional processing.  
    
  TWo channels RTS intercom.  
    
  Signal processing by DBX LExicon and scamp.  
    
  QSC and Crown power amplifiers  
  JBL 4411 nearfield monitors or Yamaha ns-10, client's choice.  
    
  Two color video monitors, one for preview, one program.  
  SOny VIdeo cameraavailable to visually monitor the  
  performance if no other video capabilities available on  
  site.  
    
  Being isolated from the actual event allows us to give our  
  full attention to the process of recording or providing audio  
  for broadcast and/or streaming listeners.  Multi-track  
  recordings are provided to the recording client on a hard  
  disk for processing at a facility of his/her choice at a  
  later date if desired.  
    
       Old school with modern technology:    Though many recording operations  
  have  
  gone to a rack of equipment which can be located in a closet or other area  
  backstage we still use a self contained mobile control room  
  for recording and mixing.  In the past this requirement was  
  unavoidable because of the bulky equipment needed for audio  
  recording.   THough the equipment is smaller and easier to  
  transport we find that being outside the venue in our own  
  customized working space gives us several advantages which enable us to  
  deliver  
  a higher quality product to the customer.   SInce we do not specialize in  
  SOund  
  reinforcement we have no need to  
  actually be inside the facility.   Our customized mobile control room  
  provides  
  a  
  consistently reliable monitoring environment for recording and mixing for  
  broadcast.   Listeners will stay tuned, and other production staff  
  concentrate  
  on their primary responsibilities.  We concentrate on capturing the  
  performance  
  for broadcast or later production without getting in the way,  
  and they remain relatively independent of us.  
    
       Though other approaches  may appear to be more cost effective they  
  require  
  compromises which may not result in suitable audio capture for broadcast or  
  later production.  Having a known acoustic environment and staff dedicated  
  to  
  the task enables you to be confident that satisfactory results will be  
  obtained.  
  We can, however provide a lower cost alternative for  
  recordings of chamber music ensembles, traditional choirs,  
  bluegrass performances and other such genres that don't  
  generate high sound pressure levels.  Call us to discuss  
  your needs.  
    
       Our staff has over 20 years  of experience in recording sound  
  reinforcement  
  and production.  RIchard WEbb, our chief  
  engineer/technician has been a musician; live sound technician and recording  
  engineer since 1975.  HIs first professional studio engineering experience  
  was  
  in 1980.  We learned to do it the old way, when performers played their  
  instruments and all the digital editing capability was nonexistent.  
  THis rig provided the TV broadcast mix for Willie Nelson's  
  Farm Aid, live recordings of the Radiators; NEw ORleans  
  Jazz fest performances;, some Austin City LImits TV productions;  
  the b52's and many others.  Different owners, but the same  
  high quality sound this control room is known to produce.
