Live (Stereo) and Studio (Multitrack) Recording
We can record any live performance on
DAT, CDR, minidisc or (if you insist on it) on compact cassette. Please note
that this method will not produce release-quality recordings.
We can also provide multitrack recording facilities. At the time of writing
these are:
Digital
|
We can provide multitrack recording (using a Lexicon Omega
audio interface and Cubase LE) direct to our laptop computer. Facilities
include: • Time
synchronisation and click-track/guide track; • Up to
24 channels; • Simultaneous
recording on up to 4 channels; • Full
MIDI interface; • Comprehensive
processing, editing and effects. |
Analogue
|
We are digital converts (we think modern
professional digital recording equipment represents real-life sounds more
accurately than analogue equipment ever did), and the recording industry
has overwhelmingly "voted with its feet" in favour of this view. However,
for anyone who still wants to get those "vintage" analogue
sounds, we own a (serviced, fully functional) Fostex R8
8-track reel-to-reel multitrack recorder. Facilities include: • Time-code
synchronisation (requires one track); • Simultaneous
recording on up to 8 channels; • Drop-in
and overdubbing. Replacement tapes are becoming harder to source, so
the continued availability of this recorder cannot be guaranteed. |
We can mix down to DAT, CD, minidisc, or compact cassette.
Our prices
for this are very low, and as well as a recording engineer can include any or all of our
microphones, effects units & processors. Materials (DATs, blank CDs,
minidiscs, or compact cassettes) are not included. We can supply these to order:
please speak
to us about your requirements.
If you can provide the
event, we can provide the equipment & the expertise.
