The Freq Zone is entering the final phase of construction of new recording studio in Jacksonville, where Studio owner Nathan Hamiel lives a double life as a sound engineer and computer security analyst.
To meet the needs of his new recording and mixing space, Hamiel has chosen The Box mixing console to combine API’s sonic signature with a small package.
‘The Box provides the sonic character of a large-format console in a smaller footprint,’ says Hamiel, who was guided through the decision process by Craig Calistro of Calistro Music. ‘The sound is everything you’d expect from API – big and punchy. I also like the fact I can have it be the centerpiece and augment it with outboard gear of my choice, creating my own personal sound.’
The studio is undergoing its final preparations including the commissioning of a new mix/master/production room with a custom desk, which will be completed during June 2014.
