One of the first Heritage Edition consoles to leave the Audient factory is now the centerpiece of a new recording studio at the London-based Institute of Contemporary Music (ICMP)

‘I have always been a big fan of their gear and absolutely love the new Heritage ASP8024 console,’ says Facilities Manager, Mike Sinnott. ‘It not only looks and sounds fantastic but represents great value for money so when deciding which console to choose for our control room it was a no-brainer.’

The Heritage Edition is billed as ‘the definitive version of David Dearden’s classic design’, taking the features of the ASP8024 and adding a internal enhancements. Comprising control room with Pro Tools HD, Logic and Ableton, and and two adjoining live rooms the studio space was designed and built by Slowglass Creative.

‘It was great to see the guys from Audient at our recent studio launch,’ Sinnott reports. ‘It was a great success giving us the opportunity to present our new facilities as well as Alchemea@ICMP’s shared vision and philosophy.’ The pair were also able to introduce legendary producer Gary Katz as patron of the new Creative Music Production courses. We are also thrilled to have launched the Audient Scholarship which offers the winner a place on ICMP’s one-year Creative Music Production Diploma and provides discount the for two runners up. We look forward to following the progress of Ezra – our first winner – as he progresses through the course.’
