Neumann U87ai
The Neumann U 87 Ai is the modern incarnation of a classic microphone. Introduced in 1967, the U 87 gained instant favor with engineers, producers, and their clients; by the mid ’70s it was a staple in every world-class recording studio. And it still is. We've also installed the Max Kirchen U67 Tube Modification to offer a world class tube microphone option.
Genelec 8361a
The largest of the coaxial point source monitors Genelec manufactures. The 8361A offers extremely high dynamic range, unrivalled directivity and imaging and a short term SPL of 118 dB, enabling it to deliver an exquisite monitoring experience at any listening distance up to 5 metres – and therefore making it perfect for small to medium sized rooms.
Universal Audio Apollo Twin X
Apollo Twin X allows musicians and producers to easily track, overdub, and mix with elite-class A/D and D/A conversion, two Unison-enabled preamps, with QUAD Core realtime UAD plug-in processing — all in a desktop Thunderbolt 3 audio interface.
BAE 1073 DMP
The classic Neve 1073 wrote the book on characterful mic preamplification, so in designing a desktop mic preamp/DI box version, BAE aimed high. That their 1073DMP is used by bevy of top artists is testimony to their success. Under the bonnet reside the finest components, such as Carnhill transformers — like those found in vintage 1073s. BAE spec'd the 1073DMP with the fabled Jensen-transformer-coupled "Bootsy Collins Mod" DI along with two throughputs. The 1073DMP delivers distinctive Class A sound with a harmonically rich bottom end, focused midrange, and slightly resonant highs.
Universal Audio Apollo X6
Apollo x6 allows music producers and post-production studios to track, overdub, and mix with elite-class A/D and D/A conversion, HEXA Core UAD plug-in processing, Dual-Crystal clocking, and 5.1 surround sound monitoring.
Avantone Mixubes Active
We’ve all been there: the mix sounds perfect — tweaked to perfection. And then the moment you hear it in your car, you realize it sounds awful. How many times are you going to go back and forth before losing your mind?!
That’s exactly what Mixcubes are built to do: save your sanity. Mixcubes are designed to be a perfect stereo matching pair of monitors to replicate the wide range of “bass-challenged” devices such as car stereos, TVs, clock radios, computers, Bluetooth devices, etc.

Royer R10 Ribbon Microphone
The Royer R-10 is a passive mono ribbon microphone designed for use in the studio and on live stages. Hand-built in our Burbank California factory, the R-10’s sound, and performance are all-Royer and it handles SPLs of up to 160 dB @ 1 kHz. The R-10’s compact size and mounting system allow for flexible, unobtrusive positioning.
