High-end Sydney mixing facility Remote Recorders has installed a Solid State Logic C200 HD Digital Production Console in its control room to handle all its postproduction duties.
‘We had a very successful run over the years with an SSL 4000 series console, but the time had come where we needed to move into a digital console with more capacity. The C200 gives us the digital console version of Total Recall so recalling the settings of a project is very fast.’
‘We have the familiar SSL automation and channel layout that our engineers have been used to with the 4000 desk, plus we continue to be able to offer SSL’s sonic heritage to our clients,’ Remote Recorders Director, Cameron McCauley, continues. ‘As a bonus, we have a console we can easily upgrade and expand at a later date. The C200 covers all bases for what we do.’
Remote Recorders is one of Australia’s leading live music production, postproduction for radio/television/DVD and instant delivery facilities. The studio, which features a large, well-equipped control room with associated overdub/vocal booth, mixes live presentations for content providers including iTunes Australia, Abbey Road Studios’ Abbey Road Live Here Now, and music television channels such as Channel [V], Music Max and the Country Music Channel.
‘The features of the C200 are a lifesaver in terms of workflow efficiency, states McCauley. We can control our DAW from the desk and offer multiple 5.1 and stereo mixes to our clients. In every way, the C200 helps us to accomplish more in less time, while maintaining the highest quality levels, allowing us to participate in services like instant delivery.’
Remote Recorders has worked with a raft of top acts including everyone from Kanye West, Coldplay, Mia and Muse to The Pixies, Chemical Brothers, Moby, Iggy Pop and Blondie, to name a few. Some other recent projects include live DVD’s for the Powderfinger Sunsets tour and the ARIA iTunes countdown for Live Nation.
The acquisition follows that of a DiGiCo SD8 digiral console earlier in 2011.
