Equipment List

Although tools aren't everything, we've got a whole load of technical frippery at our disposal to help make sure we get the best results possible. Both our mobile rig and mixing studio are based around Pro Tools. They are maintained to be of excellent reliability and productivity making sure nothing gets in the way of a session. The mixing studio is based around an Apple G5 computer capable of mixing the most complex projects without breaking a sweat and the mobile rig is based around an Apple MacBook Pro laptop configured to be ultra reliable during tracking.
