Here at The Coolest Recording Studio in London Town - we've had a great year - we got to work with some of London's most creative musicians - plus we got to create & make some tres interesting recording & production devices.

 electromagnetic microphone

The first of these was the Icrophone - an electromagnetic microphone that picks up & records information from radios, phones, tablets, computers - tv - & most electronic devices - it's pretty amazing for generating soundscapes - but click Here for a more in depth explanation of its' capabilities.

After that we made a binaural stereo microphone - when a singer songwriter comes in to the studio & they want to record live with either guitar or piano - we do of course close mic both instrument & vocals - but we also use the binaural mic to record the environment - it's not just like using a stereo mic setup - it's much more natural sounding than that.

reverb 

Then we built this crazy string reverb - it's like a plate reverb but with strings - which means we can tune the reverb to the track ! Makes for some very lovely audio!

Rudimentary Electric Bass Recording - Puttin' the Big into Booty!

Here at the Coolest Recording Studio in London Town - we do like a big fat bootifull low end - as much as we like melodic mids & tingling highs - & while there are a gazillion mixing / production tricks to make the bass sit nice, pop out or groove summore - you always gotta start out with the basics - & get the badass tracked. First thing's first - get your bass player settled - doesn't matter if they're sitting or standing - they're gonna want to see the drummer - or at least the control room. Plug the bass into a DI ( Direct Injection ) box before any pedals or fx units they may be using - you want a good clean signal going to your recorder - you can use this as is to mix in with the mic'd up amp - you may want to process it with effects or software amp emulations - or indeed you may want to run it into a different amplifier and re record a different tone later down the line. Here's a pretty good quality di: You just plug into t

Mic Pre's - Putting Flavour In The Mix!

Here at The Coolest Recording Space in London Town - we got all kinds of studio shazzle - mixers / compressors / eq's - but for audio capture, the most important thing aside for the mics - are mic preamplifiers. They come in all shapes & forms - from lovely vintage tube pre's that warm up the sound of an instrument or space to super fast solid state units that capture transient material (like metal drums or fast picked acoustic guitar) to transformer based pre's that you can distort at the input to add bloom & energy to an audio source. This is a Vortexion tube preamp as used by Joe Meek & the Who back in the 50's & 60's - beautiful for recording drums, guitars, vocals & ambient spaces with ribbon microphones. They were broadcast quality units that add a rich, fullness to the mic chain. You can also use them to pleasantly saturate vocals etc in post production. vortexion   These Ampex 602 units came out of an old tape recorder

We just Have to make new, interesting & exciting recording & mixing devices for our excellent clients .
