Calling all my piano friends. It sounds great. Come play it for FREE (after its tuned). The only caveat... you must record one Christmas tune on your visit. 🎅

You could use it on a track. Would you like to? Should we get one for you?

The Yamaha U3 is highly regarded as one of the best studio upright pianos. Run it through a Trident board with Neve compressors. Sample libraries are great... but wouldn't you like to play it for real? It could be fun.

Presale! DM for deep discount rates to record on a freshly setup U3. Discount limited to recording artists that will use the piano on a track and maximum of 20hrs per artists. Ideal for jazz groups, blues, rock, and pop sessions.

We greatly appreciate being part of the Trident family. At every turn, doing business with this company has been one of the best decisions I've made since opening the studio.

First... the console is absolute FIRE. I put hands and ears on several of the biggest names in the biz, and the Trident build material craft and sound quality is in the peer group with the best money can buy.

But... the bonus is they are doing business in a way that is a real partnership. They helped get the deal done. Built it to my spec (16 ch and Main Bus w/ transformers, 8 ch and Groups w/out transformers). And... they do stuff like this, unprompted, to help support the studio. I spoke with other console makers who had no chill and only sales ego (deal killer). That's real. It matters.

If you need a recording session, come use this board and hear the quality of their design. If you need a great preamp or eq, come take a studio tour and demo this board... and then buy one for yourself. Great preamps and eq! You will not be disappointed with their products or support.

And... if you're a remote engineer interested in hearing a hybrid mix or stem mix, DM for booking. We can run remote attended sessions. Can add warmth to any track with this beauty.

Truth

Recording secret: Even pros need multiple takes! 🎬

When in the studio, never settle for "good enough".

"Even the best players need multiple takes. Don't stop until it feels right."

The difference between amateur and pro recordings?

Patience and persistence.

Keep going until that magic happens! 🌀
