Remote Recorders purchases SSL console for control room

AUSTRALIA: Sydney-based mixing-facility Remote Recorders has purchased a Solid State Logic C200 HD digital production console for its control room. The C200 was chosen to allow the studio to handle all post-production duties, and is said to help engineers ‘achieve more in less time’.
‘Remote Recorders is one of Australia's foremost specialists in live music audio production and post-production for radio, television, DVD and instant delivery,’ remarked Cameron McCauley, director of Remote Recorders. ‘We had a very successful run over the years with an SSL 4000 series console, but the time had come where we needed to move into a digital console with more capacity,’ he explained.
‘The C200 gives us the digital console version of Total Recall, so recalling the settings of a project is very fast. We have the familiar SSL automation and channel layout (which our engineers are used to), plus we continue to be able to offer SSL’s sonic heritage to our clients. As a bonus, we have a console we can easily upgrade and expand at a later date. The C200 covers all bases for what we do,’ he enthused.
‘The integrated features on the C200 are a lifesaver in terms of workflow efficiency,’ Mr McCauley continued. ‘We can control our DAW from the desk and offer multiple 5.1 and stereo mixes to our clients.’
Remote Recorders has worked with acts including Kanye West, Coldplay, Mia, Muse, The Pixies, Chemical Brothers, Moby, Iggy Pop and Blondie.
