The gear

Analog in,
before anything else.

Cranborne Camden preamps, a Maag EQ4 for air, and an ACME Opticom XLA-500 compressor. Real analog on the way in, then Pro Tools and an honest room.

A real booth.

She's not the prettiest thing in the world, and a few details are still to finalize — but we love her, and she does the job: proper isolation, her own door, and a window straight through to the desk so you and your engineer can see each other while you work.
