API Audio
There are several names in the audio recording industry that stand out among engineers and producers for their exceptional build quality, circuitry and high end sonic counterpart. One company in particular is API Audio, a manufacturer of highly desirable microphone preamps, EQ’s, compressors and consoles. We are pleased to announce that House Recording Studios has been featured in API’s “Word from the Street” section on their website. This is truly a huge honor to be acknowledged by such a highly regarded company in the audio recording industry, for countless hit records have been recorded and mixed on API consoles.
The API 512c preamp, made famous by the sonic purity delivered by their legendary 2520 Op-Amp, is one of the most sought after microphone preamps available. At House Studios we are avid users of API products and included in our vast collection of audio equipment and technology, we own a 512c, an API 3124, the Waves API Bundle and an API Lunchbox. Our API preamps are the rock of our studio operation. From drums to synths to electric and bass guitars, these preamps capture every sonic detail, frequency and transient put forth from a sound source. The 512c delivers a certain bite and punch to the signal, truly allowing an instrument to cut through a dense mix with ease. The Waves API bundle is an essential asset to the mixing process as the EQ’s are extremely musical and transparent. It is an engineer’s dream to have the ability to add that pristine API touch to each track in a mixing session (without hogging CPU power) and API did an incredible job emulating the hardware in which the software algorithms replicate.
