A flashback to the good old days of analog recording – with the technical convenience of a modern-day studio. Studio B offers the best of both worlds.
Dating back to the early 70’s, our completely overhauled Neve 8016 (24/8/16) from the legendary Walt Disney Studios in California with 1064 preamps is the centerpiece of Studio B. A 16 track Studer A80 MKI with CLASP, a Studer C37, Pro Tools HD with high-end Burl Mothership B80 converters (24in/40out) complement the studio’s philosophy perfectly: handmade music recorded in best quality.
