The Equipment - updated jan 2011

Our current main computers are an Apple iMac 27" and a MacBook Pro 17, with additional new Apple products enroute. The greatest thing about Apple computer and related products is that not only does it make great and fantastic computing power for recording studio applications. It also happens to be the absolute best for all of our needs in continuing educational ventures, and website design with Adobe products like CS4 Premium, and of course Apple's Developer program.

New additions coming to the studio will be a new Digidesign ProTools HD Accel System, Contenders for the large format mixing console are also being looked into with front runners being from Euphonix and Solid State Logic. Additonally we hope to add the digital interface converters from Apogee "Symphony I/O" for an ultra clean transparent recording experience. A whole new slew of synthesizers are on the worklist, and we are refining our list down to those "must have" pieces.
