Did you ever experience that a project you are working on loses its vitality with each layer you add? If you work “in the box”, the problem is often due to the fact that it is recorded against a click and that the musicians add their contributions one by one instead of together. If you use software instruments instead of real instruments, even more of what feels real is lost.
The solution to the problem is to record, preferably together, in a studio big enough for a band, an orchestra, a choir or whatever you need. You get the groove that can only arise in a live meeting between musicians. Plus you get the chance to record real instruments in a way that brings out the very best for your project.
Omnivox is an old-school recording studio, in every detail designed to give you the best conditions for the creative journey. Here you will find a large recording room of 90 square meters with a ceiling height of 5.5 m. The room is acoustically balanced to keep a bit of character. There are two vocal/amplifier booths, in case you want to isolate vocals during a live recording. There is also a big control room with classic UREI 813 speakers, a plate reverb, a few tape echos, compressors, harmonizer etc.
A plethora of instruments are free to use. Here’s a 1959 Malmsjö semi-concert grand piano + two different upright pianos. 10+ vintage keyboard instruments such as Clavinet D6, Solina, VOX Continental, Farfisa Compact, Juno 60, Hammond L‑100 + Leslie. Premier drum set + percussion, vintage amplifiers from Fender, Marshall, Acoustic, Music Man etc. Good microphones and a fantastic re-capped 90s AMEK mixer. You can choose between recording digitally or track to 2″ tape.
Things sound good here, plain and simple! So capture all you can and bring it back home on a hard drive!
