Well, as far as days go, got to admit that I've had worse.......

Me. Peter Gabriel's studio (Real World). Mixing a tune over 2 days.











This is what you get for a few million quid. Quite simply the BEST hi-fi in the world


And a Swan paddling past your window :grin:

Dan :thumbsup:

 

very nice!!!


come on, whos in the background?

 

yeah whos in the background and wheres the swan? lol

 

I couldn't go in there without wanting to press every button! lol.

Looks amazing though mate

 

Blurred out faces are trainees.

The swan is here...... ****** moved

 

Fantastic! Well done, fella!

 

Question is... did you make some sweet tunes?

 

Looks more like something out of NASA.don't suppose you can get that from Richer Sounds.

 

Nice to see the security system is a swan, no one messes with those ******* lol

 

It's Blur

 

Not sure who they are but they were on Crime Watch last week!

 

Great tune made - just waiting for some authorisation as the copyright needs to be sorted
Console is worth roughly £300k - there's only 50-odd in the world!
Just one of the EQs (for those who don't "know" - EQ is a "bass, mid & treble adjuster") - a GML 8200, is £4500....
Then for other kit the prices just go up and up (along with the exclusivity and rarity).....

I gave up buying HiFi kit once I started working in studios - it's a pointless pursuit that will not be caught.
Where most audiophiles get caught out is that they can afford the toys, but not the £100ks to sort the acoustics in the room!!

yes, the volume goes to "11" - SSL loves Spinal Tap!!


Rather large monitors...... about 8ft tall. Yes 12" subs underneath (they're on other surfaces too! )


And shiny lights.

 

pretty sure the two in the middle are on crimewatch every week

Superb that dial goes to 11!

So basically you're a fat bloke that likes playing with *****??

 

I have to use a big mixing console as my fat stubby fingers can't use the small stuff. I mash too many controls!

 

You're a cheeky bugger, but funny

 

Very nice! I worked at Jay Kay's house on his recording studio in about 1998 and it was impressive but nowhere near as impressive as that!

 

I've just melted into a heap on the office floor! oh my god, what a studio!


In the words of life of brain "You lucky luck B*st*rd!"

 

that's seriously impressive. Glad you had fun.

 

in.credible.

 

I Have also been in that same seat working, Its a great place. Is the water still running under it? Jealous of you now

 

My friend, Tom, played piano in the New Blood Orchestra on the recent tour with Peter and he had told me how impressive Real World was - nice to see it as well.

 

Very Very impressive, I'd love to lock myself away in there for a month or so and have a "proper" listen to my music collection
