We are a holiday and vacation city – there are a lot of nice apartments and nice but expensive hotels within a 10 minutes walk range… so we will gladly find something suitable for you and for your creative vacation…
Our newly built recording facility located in Split city centre on the beautiful Croatian Dalmatian coast. It is located 10 min walk from Split Old Town, Riva and Diocletian palace.
Following the modern recording studio concept, the facility itself is designed as a big 130 m2 all in one place with 4m high ceiling for live recording, mixing, live rehearsal and live audio/video broadcast. But for those who like to have small tight sounding places, we will also have two Iso boots which are currently under construction. We are also equipped with a 35 m2 large lounge and living area with a small kitchen. And yes, a bath and toilet is also to be found around.
Acoustically, it is divided in two sections. Band and live area have controlled reverb 20Hz-20kHz in RT60 value 500-600 ms and at mixing position 230-300 ms. It is big enough to accommodate a larger orchestra up to 25 pax or a band with 20-25 pax audience for live broadcast. Iso boots: tight as possible, but with a hell of a diffusion. We will see when it comes to this. Sooner than later.
But, the main highlight is that the whole system is built around our beautiful and fully functional 56 ch analog SOUNDCRAFT Series FIVE console in mint condition.
And now, we come to the studio and recording equipment nerds and geeks section.
