What sort of equipment and software does the department use?
The department runs exclusively Macintosh computers (G4s and G5s) using ProTools HD and LE. Our Studio 505 console is a 24 input SSL (Solid State Logic) XL 9000 K Series. Our new Studio 510 console is an API Vision 5.1 Surround Sound mixing board with 48 inputs. Both studios are also equipped with a Studer 827 two-inch analog tape recorder and state-of-the-art package of gear and microphones.
