Our NS10s are a studio staple. Everything we track and mix runs through these puppies at some point during a project.

They actually don't sound that great to sit back and listen to music on, but they are tools that we can't live without.

Tracking🎤: When tracking through analog gear like our console, you need to know your source is the bomb before recording it. We use these to zoom way in to find buzzy things, squeaky chairs, phase issues and quickly get to the sound we're going for.

Mixing🎚: If the recording isn't great, NS10s will let you know instantly. Harsh upper mids can hide all the way through the project. These help us smooth things out earlier in the process with less processing.

Have you met our in-house COFFEE ENGINEER yet?

Cole Assman (pronounced "Ozzmun" and distantly related to Dick) is an ACTUAL WIZARD when it comes to all things audio. We are lucky to have him around the studio on the regular.

Graduating with honours from The Recording Arts Institute of Saskatoon, he never misses a detail when maintaining, using, and choosing the gear for each project. He makes sure every sonic opportunity is used to make your audio sound incredible.👂

He's currently a broadcast audio engineer at CTV Saskatoon and works out of our studios as a freelance audio engineer.

He rolls with companies like PR Productions, Tri Sonic Sound, and can be seen behind the faders as FOH engineer for artists like Brody Siebert, Justin LaBrash Singer/Songwriter, and Brock Andrews.

Book him while you can and he'll make you a great cup of coffee.

Feeling grateful to have been busy with a lot of drum related projects lately! It’s one of our specialties and passions! 🥁

As a drummer, it’s natural for drums to be one of my fav aspects of recording. Fortunately it’s one of the more complex instruments we record on a regular basis, which keeps me challenged — learning new ways to apply different techniques when recording anything else.

THANK YOU 🙏 to all our clients who keep us on our toes! — Randy Farkas

Big shiny condenser mics are definitely fun, but sometimes a trusty old dynamic standby can capture some amazing results. 🎤

Our SM7Bs and RE20 are getting some good use these days.

What are your current go-to or all time favourite mics?
