Recording With space to spare in the new Archive building, we constructed two different recording spaces. The Live room features wood walls and a high ceiling, and is ideal for roomy drum, vocal, and instrument sounds. The Dead room is smaller and features extensive broadband absorption for a tight, dry sound, more suited to close micing and isolation. Additionally the front lounge can be used as a recording space, with a more lively small room sound. With the addition of a rack of microphone preamps to the mastering room, a full band can be tracked live in the studio. The additional equipment needed for recording is transparent to the control room's usual function as mastering studio. This arrangement allows for very high quality monitoring via the mastering room speaker system. All rooms are interconnected with mic, line, headphone, and speaker level wiring allowing for great flexibility in the tracking arrangement.
