In the near future, our new facility will be causing some heads to turn as we open
the doors (hopefully in time for a "gala" New Year's Eve celebration) to Studio A. The
tracking room alone will be a spectacular sight. Meticulously designed, it is truly an image
that must be seen to be appreciated. A diverse combination of hardwood, tile, and glass
will impress the eyes and ears of those seeing it for the first time.
The control room design is a trip into the past, a part of the present, and a glimpse of the future. We'll be able to meet the requirements of any client that chooses to allow us that privilege. If there is anything we don't have on hand, we'll be able to get it if it's available. Matrix is defined by Webster as "Something within which something else originates or develops." Our goal for this project was to build that "something". We think we will have achieved that goal when the facility is completed. What's in store for our clients is listed below. The details are subject to change only if we happen to find anything to include that we feel is too important to overlook. |
