Studio B

The Console

The console was designed and constructed by Milan Bogdan.

From the brochure..."The Tera Shirma Audio Control Console, designed by Milan Bogdan, Chief Engineer, uses solid state line amps and integrated circuit amplifier modules to provide quality and reliability". 

The audio control console has been developed to include control functions most needed by the record industry of today and tomorrow and to provide the professional with professional sound recordings.

The console specifications have been derived from the one remaining studio rate card I have.

12 microphone or line inputs
Switchable equalization
Echo send and selectable return
Echo send level meters
Separate equalization on echo return busses
Stereo cue system
Stereo pan on all 12 microphone or line inputs
Submaster outputs with illuminated V.U. meters
1 mono master with illuminated V.U meter
Push button monitoring for: each machine, each microphone, each program buss, each playback buss, chamber return buss, cue channels, and mono channel.
Remote tape control.

All recorders were made by Scully.
A various assortment of pultecs and limiters
EMT echo unit

From the brochure...A Tera Shirma requirement is that  (besides being technically qualified ) our sound engineers have musical backgrounds.

This means you work with technicians who have an unusual depth of understanding for your goals.
