Equipment
State-of-the-Art Equipment at White Bear Studios Recording Studio Manchester: Elevating Sound with Neumann TLM 103, Universal Audio Twin Finity Preamps, SSL VHD Xlogic Alpha Preamps, and RME Fireface 802 Interface
At the heart of our recording arsenal is the Neumann TLM 103 microphone, a paragon of precision and versatility. Renowned for its ability to capture the finest nuances of sound, the TLM 103 is a cornerstone for delivering pristine vocals and instrumentals.
Complementing this, we harness the power of the Universal Audio Twin Finity preamps. Fusing tube and solid-state technology, these preamps infuse warmth and character into every recording, creating a distinctive sonic signature. The SSL VHD Xlogic Alpha preamps further contribute to this sonic alchemy, ensuring transparent amplification and uncompromising fidelity.
Seamless connectivity and uncompromising audio processing are made possible by the RME Fireface 802 interface. With its high-performance AD/DA conversion and low-latency monitoring, the Fireface 802 is the backbone of our studio's signal flow, ensuring that every nuance is captured with precision.
To bring it all together, we entrust the latest version of Pro Tools, the industry-standard software for recording, editing, and mixing. This powerful platform allows us to sculpt and refine your audio masterpiece with unparalleled precision and efficiency.
