La Salle de Musique.

The music room feels like a large living room, a place to hang out, relax, listen and record. The room (60m2) with high ceilings, natural light and views over the valley offers an acoustically balanced room optimised work space to record in ProTools and Logic, with Lynx coverters connecting via Core audio, with EMI Redd & Neve 1073 Preamps. Alternatively connect your computer via Universal Audio Apollo interface, to run Ableton, or the DAW of your choice, with the complete suite of UAD plugins. Movable gobos line the walls for adaptable acoustics, to create spaces for vocal booths, or acoustic recordings of instruments, or ensembles. 

The Quested speakers offer a large holographic sound that fills the room, and is inspirational, accurate and fun to work with. The Barefoot & Amphion near-fields offer pin point accuracy and detail.

The recording and mixing chains create a deep and detailed sound stage, and the outboard offers colours of sound from API & Neve solid state, to REDD, Sta Level and Vari Mu tubes. Plus the very best in digital with the Bricasti M7 Reverb.

Instruments including a beautifully maintained Oberheim OB8 (thank you Manfred @ Vintage Synth Repair). Yamaha U1 upright piano. DSI Tempest analog drum machine. Moog phatty, Elektron Digitone, and other instrumenst, amps, pedals and boxes to inspire.
