Studio C Nashville was designed with freelance engineers and tech savvy artists in mind. It's a logically laid out recording studio, with contemporary acoustics, and features many well-known models and brands of professional recording equipment. All of our vintage gear has been refurbished, restored and brought back to like new condition. Many pieces have been modified with upgraded modern components, classic NOS tubes, and vintage transformers. These modifications are engineered to enhance the sonic character of the chosen devices and improve noise or distortion performance. Our DAW selection includes Pro Tools 11, Cubase 8.5, Logic X and Adobe Audition CC as a component of the Adobe Creative Cloud. We have automated many Pro Tools functions utilizing the revolutionary Batch Commander 2.5 from Slate Media Technology.
Control Room A's main monitors are modified KRK 1300M mastering monitors with a 1/4 wave transmission line sub woofer system. This 4 way system is powered by Crown, Conrad Johnson, and Bryston audiophile power amps. Room EQ, driver alignment, and crossover functions are handled by a 24 bit DSP speaker management system. Secondary monitors include Mackie HR 824 and Yamaha HS 5 monitors.
Over 40 modern and vintage pre amps and channel strips are routed into Universal Audio Apollo and Apogee Converters. They include modern units from, Daking, Phaedrus Audio, Grace, Sebatron, Universal Audio, Lindell Audio, and Audient.
