Although I strongly believe in the fact that a great mix is first and foremost crafted by the engineer rather then his tools I understand that many people are interested in the technical bits and the usual “gear show off” so here we go:
feinklang studio was built and equipped with both analogue and digital gear to form a hybrid setup that has the best of both worlds while still maintaining a rather small footprint. The room was acoustically treated in order to have a neutral sounding room that allows precise mixing decisions to be made. All of the equipment was picked carefully and with the highest quality possible in mind. The current collection of gear allows me to deliver results anywhere from transparent and open to colored, punchy and “dirty”.
