THE GEAR
“I’ve managed to build a great mix and overdub room, piece by piece over the years - everything was chosen for a reason. The result is a place that’s comfortable to work, and sounds great. There’s a great front end for capturing killer sounds, including Burl converters, really great new and vintage outboard, and an extensive list of digital plugins.”
