Expert Sound Engineers
Additionally, #5 is outfitted with the latest Tangerine automation system for GML from THD-Labs. Commissioned by TFR’s owner, THD-Labs built the Tangerine for GML specifically for TFR and #5. This system provides smooth, seamless integration of software and hardware control between the physical console and the user’s DAW of choice, streamlining workflows and allowing for instant “in-the-box”- recall on the large format console.
Comfortable and Spacious Recording Rooms
The physical studio was designed by John Aquilino with acoustic design by Hanson Hsu from Delta H Designs and encompasses many of Hanson’s innovative ZR technologies through out the space. The result is a room that is completely tunable to the users needs and preferences, providing for unparalleled accuracy and sonic transparency that creates a listening environment that artists, engineers and producers can trust.
