Live Room

FEELS JUST LIKE HOME

With a large, high ceilinged tracking room, two impressive control rooms and a spacious lounge, it's a natural choice for musician to record at Studio Eschen. For high-end analog recording studio offers a state-of-the-art C.L.A.S.P. (Closed Loop Analog Signal Processor) system connected to a fully serviced Studer A820 for 24 analog multitracking. Patented by Chris Estes, the CLASP design bridged analog and digital recording techniques by seamlessly integrating the tape machine into Pro Tools.

​

The result is the ability to record to tape while maintaining the speed and flexibility of a DAW, delivering real-time analog monitoring with zero-latency through a mastering grade audio signal path. Just like we each like different genres of music, some engineers like plugins, and thats fine. But when it comes down to it, we like the sound of using the real thing any day over a simulation. 

And why not use the real thing if you can? 

A real tape machine running in the studio is always way more inspiring than a plugin any day.

The studio has also it's own Steinway Grand Piano 6' 4" very beautiful sound and real touch of class.

STATE-OF-THE-ART SSL 4000 G SERIES

The SSL G series has been stalwarts supporter of studios around the world for the past 25 years, and legend has it that more platinum records have been mixed on G Series desks, than on any other type of console. The biggest positive of having a G4048 - apart from its great sound - is the flexibility it gives to the studio. A compact design packs great preamps, EQ and dynamics into every channel and provides an amazing central core to the studios setup. In conjunction with the growing outboard rack of preamps, dynamics processors and FX toys the desk catapults the studio into a sonic realm.
