The Euphonix“ R-1 hard disk multitrack recording
platform
is at the heart of a new high-end location recording package called
Studiolab being launched this month. Optimised for the emerging DVD-Audio
market, Studiolab is the brainchild of digital audio guru Ian Silvester,
founder of North London-based digital audio service and rental company
Digital Audio Technology (DAT).
Studiolab is a highly mobile system comprising, in this groundbreaking
service, three self-contained kits, each kit combining a 48-track R-1 with
Pro Tools via the new Euphonix FC727 format converter. The FC727 was
developed by Euphonix to act as a seamless interface between the R-1 and
Pro
Tools.
Renowned digital audio engineer Ian Silvester emphasises the stability of
the R-1 in the critical conditions of high-end digital recording.
„Studiolab
is intended to drive forward the DVD-Audio market, making convenient 5.1
multitrack recording and editing available to discerning music clients,“
he
says. „By bolting on the R-1 to Pro Tools we can provide a truly stable
platform for any location.“
Each package comprises a 48-track R-1 with the Euphonix FC727 format
converter; all the A-Ds and D-As; a 64-voice Pro Tools Mix+ system with
three SampleCells and three 888 24s on board; a 24-fader ProMix with
EditPack; and five Dynaudio Acoustics M2s on stands. All TDM plug-ins for
Pro Tools are also included.
Managing Director of Euphonix Europe Miles Roberts adds, „To get this
level
of commitment from Ian, one of the most exacting, respected and highly
regarded people in his field worldwide, is extremely rewarding – and it
reflects our belief in the R-1 as the best hard disk multitrack platform
available today. „Euphonix is well on the way to establishing the R-1 as a
new standard in both music and audio post-production throughout Europe.
I“m
certain that many more demanding professionals will follow Ian“s lead.“
DAT provides 24-hour technical support, and if Ian isn“t available
personally he will ensure that a DAT-recommended engineer will accompany
Studiolab to each session. „All you have to do is hire a house in the
country, and as long as it“s got a 13-amp mains plug, everything else is
sorted,“ adds Silvester. „Of course, the package is also available for use
in any studio.“
