in a studio, there is no better recording tool than years of experience. we combine ours with some vintage and high end audio gear, as well as cutting edge digital equipment and software. really good microphones, quality microphone preamps and the like are what really make tracks come to life. below is the collection of gear we use to get you the best product possible.
here at ToneZone, we love and use the 48 channel Mackie D8B mixing console with total recall automation & flying faders. we record to a hard disk based Digital Audio Workstation system currently running our favorite multi-track software of choice: SEK'D Samplitude. we use Apogee & Frontier Tango A/D converters. if needed, we also have PC based ProTools, 24 tracks of ADAT XT and the latest version of Nuendo.
we are 24 'track-at-once' recording capable with unlimited final
tracks. we offer full digital editing and sound design capabilities with a wide
assortment of Direct X plugins from Bomb Factory,
Waves, Sonic Foundry,
Ozone, and dozens more.
we monitor tracking and mixes on Mackie HR824 powered monitors and have Audio Technica, Sony, Fostex & AKG headphones for our clients.
