STUDIO C
Studio C features an SSL 4064G (fitted with 8 stereo channels and Ultimation).
This console was originally made for a studio in France called Studio Mega in 1989, it then made its way to Florida to an unknown producer's personal studio. It was purchased in 2005 by Rock Beach studios in Whiterock, BC.
When Rock Beach closed its doors the console spent time in the hallowed halls of Mushroom Studios in Vancouver before it came to Big Valley Audio for the largest console project they have ever taken on. Under the expert guidance of Chris Potter and Corey Dixon, the console was overhauled and built from the ground up.
The lounge is tied in, making the options for this versatile unlimited.
This console is truly one of a kind. In a standalone building with its own lounge and kitchen, Studio C is a private space for recording or mixing.
