PSI A17-M Near Field Reference Monitors

Accurate monitors can equal an accurate mix. Swiss made precision and all analog components give definition and honesty to these high end monitors. No fancy DSP processing here. These rely on exquisite craftsmanship. PSI Audio started making speakers before some of us were born. Alain Roux introduced his designs in 1975, while a student at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich. His company eventually became Relec SA. In 1991 Studer retained Alain and company to develop a line of OEM monitors. In 2004 the PSI Audio brand was launched.

Avantone Mixcube Monitor

In the real world a lot of what you hear is in mono. So it’s important for a Mixer to check things that way. Also the vast majority of music is heard on less than optimal speakers with not much more than mid range and lacking in bass. So the Mixcube provides a window into how a lot of your music is heard.

QSC HPR122i PA Monitors

Rock out in the Live Room with these stage monitors.

Sonarworks SoundID Reference Software

No room is acoustically perfect. This software analyzes your room and adjusts the sound coming out of your monitors to be as close to ‘flat’ as possible. A flat frequency reference point for listening makes it possible to honestly hear your source material and ensure it translates accurately into the real listening world. Our Control Room uses this technology to provide the best chance at achieving a great mix for all listening environments.
