Leute - da ist soviel passiert, dass wir vergessen haben zu posten… Schande! Also hier mal ein erstes Update: Unser altes Studio 2 Shack ist umgezogen, größer und gemütlicher und läuft jetzt unter ⚜️ Golden Nugget 😂 - außerdem hat man prima Kontakt zum 140qm Blackstar und einen eigenen Isobooth. Top Studio für Songwriting Camps, gemütliche Sessions und einfach abhängen!

Fat and just fat. And in fact in no way to compare with the known software emulations. With a real Mini Moog you can make basses that you don't hear, but keep the needle on your VU-meter in the right stop...
The only downer is that you have to turn the thing on an hour beforehand so that the oscillators warm up and stay tunable. Nevertheless you have to retune it every now and then...
This fine mini-Moog was kindly provided by a nice client who was looking for a place to keep his gem warm and dry.

The centerpiece of the control room is our fancy @sessiondesk with an integrated @sslaudio Nucleus 2 DAW controller with 16 motor faders, extensive DAW control and 2 SSL SuperAnalogue preamps which directly feed our Dante network and your DAW. The @focusritepro Red4 Pre is our main I/O interface and offers additional 4 Focusrite Red Evolution Preamps and up to 58x65 I/O channels. You also might want to use our Neve R6 side rack with additional preamps and analogue compressors/EQ.
You can easily bring your own laptop, plug an ethernet cord or TB3 cable into your device and have full access to our studio. This way you can easily track to your own DAW without using our machines.

We called these things "cheat sheets" - not sure about the correct English term...
Basically a very ancient form of saving you presets...

One of those old school techniques, that have long $One of those old school techniques, that have long been forgotten in the digital age: The art of looping a tape. @brianeno @robertfrippofficial and @itspetergabriel were among the first to use this concept in pop music. I remember seeing pictures of tape loops running throughout their studio... Basically it's quite simple: Record a piece of music on tape, cut the beginning and the end, tape it together and run it to your machine using a mic stand or similar as an extended pulley. Well of course you can do all that stuff with your DAW in seconds. But believe me: It's only a fraction of the fun and does not sound half as good! . . . #studio #recordingstudio #vintagerecording #recording #recordproducer #analogrecording #k22studios #vintagegear #vintagegearaddict #gearaddict #gearporn #studioporn #creativemixing #mixgear #studiogear #studiolife #recordinggear #vintagestudiogear #mixengineer #studiorecording #studiospace #tapeloop #looping$

In the past (...no - I'm not one of those people who think that everything was better in the past...) these metal hubs were an essential consumable in every recording studio. These so-called "AEG bobbies" (or "AEG hubs" in English - even though BASF and others had them too...) were the reels on which you wound 1/4" master tape. In contrast to the normal tape reels that most people know, in the professional field they had limited themselves to the essentials in order to save material and costs. On your tape machine you had a nice dispenser and in a normal session one has already so 20-30 of the things used....
A journalist from the WDR recently told me that (in the old days...) the reporters brought the contributions to the studio, where each one was then winded onto a bobby and all the bobbies were put on a stick in the chronology of the broadcast, from which the executive sound engineer then took them down in the course of the broadcast.
In the studio there were still such nice cardboard boxes for storage. Both are unfortunately no longer available today and bobbies are traded on ebay used for 3-4€ a piece! Fortunately, we were able to dust off just under 500 Bobbies from the stocks of the Hessische Broadcast Station during our recent forays... That should be enough for a while nowadays...
