Sodasound

Here is ⓢ¹, in the heart of the complex. Designed in a mid-century style, with brutalist touches and clean lines, this studio has hybrid ergonomics and modern equipment, making it the perfect production tool. The brown and woody look of the booth gives a warm atmosphere reminiscent of the golden age of Recording Studios.

Equipped with a 32-channel analog API console, the studio adjoins a 30m² Live Room, an 8m² Isolate for instruments and a Vocal booth.
Its concrete facade features a pair of ATC SCM110ASL Pro monitors, and two ATC SCM0.1/15 Custom subwoofers ; a unique listening system in France. A perfect 30° angle is respected at the listening point and the room has been treated to obtain a RT60 of 0.3s, making it clear and musical. The pure bass emanating from the 15" subs is held by a tuned wall-membrane, at the back of the room. Each section of wall conceals diffusion panels and the ceiling is a real acoustic grid. They thus make it possible to achieve an almost linear frequency response curve.

Under ProTools HD and matrixed by an Avid MTRX, the audio signal is converted by Lynx Aurora(n) interfaces. The audio, integrated on IP addresses and Dante system, allows unlimited interfacing within the studio but also the entire complex. Each guest producer can also plug into the Dante backbone from their personal computer.

Signal mixing is provided by the most audiophile cables on the market, Gotham for analog and Belden for digital.

The peripherals are exceptional, all the biggest references find place in this environment: Urei 1176, 1178, AMS Neve 1084, Ampex 351, TAB Telefunken V76, Teletronix LA2A, TubeTech CL1B, Focusrite Red 3, SSL, Manley Varimu, Eventide H3000, AKG ADR 68K, Lexicon 200, EARS 660...

The live room looks like a modernist living room and opens onto the ⓢ¹ control room. Offering a range of legendary instruments and a collection of around sixty exceptional microphones!

In a warm atmosphere, this high-ceilinged stage, of more than 30m2, entirely dedicated to recording, offers uncompromising acoustics and ergonomics conducive to creation. Equipped with a drum stage, an open guitar, an isolated room for the piano and an independent vocal booth, it allows you to make very high quality recordings, either live or separately.

Every instrument, every microphone is permanently connected to the main studio API console. You can record every idea to the second and not dissipate any of your creativity to create freely. Its ergonomics open to the control room facilitates the production process and optimizes your session.

On each stage box, there are multiple analog channels, Dante digital audio ports, an RTP midi network, HP amping, LAN, Avid Nexis and BNC video. A video return is provided for the music on the image and the post-synchronization and the whole thing is connected to the nodal to share the signals with any cabin in the complex.
