Songwriters: Get a different perspective of your songs.

Wouldn’t you love to listen to your songs and ideas while driving to work? Review the set you plan to perform at your next gig.

Three hours is the perfect amount of time to record songs ideals and jam sessions.

Hear your ideas after the dust has settled. Being able to listen to your songs with fresh ears is a valuable song writing tool

Let me say it one more time. Book a two hour session before August 21st and I will give you an extra hour free.

More time is good!

Engineer + Perform= Good Perspective

A Gift for his Wife

It’s been a busy month, but I was able to help a client record and complete a CD for his wife. He loves his wife so much he decided to record his vocals over some of their favorite songs.

He brought his favorite Karaoke CDs and we recorded. I was able to go online to get lyrics we didn’t have and he was well prepared so sessions went smoothly.

His wife is going to love the CD

Manley Dual Mono Mic Pre

This unit is painstakingly hand wired using silver solder and audiophile-grade componentry by Manley Labs. Double shielded custom-built power transformers and custom-built high capacity reservoir capacitors are used for the power supply.

40 to 50 dBs of gain are selectable in precise 2.5dB steps by varying the amount of overall negative feedback on the GAIN switch. This is a very interesting feature indeed, allowing us to change the slew rate, placement, and tonal balance of the sound from mellow and “tubey-er” through to faster, punchier and more aggressive.

The front panel has a volume knob, phantom power switch, phase reverse switch, and a 1/4″ DIRECT INPUT for each pre, and the one gain switch for both pre-amps. Simple controls mean minimal circuitry and a clean sound.

It’s a great piece of equipment to work with.
