My studio is my instrument. The combination of cutting-edge digital tools and the best historical valve and transformer technology allows me to play it with ease. My digital /analog /digital loop is kept short and minimal to provide maximum accuracy. Digital tools allow for meticulous corrections and to-the-point automation, while my hand-built mastering console offers the kind of 3-D depth that analog does best.
