JUDGE FOR YOURSELF
When deciding on a mixer, always judge them on how their work sounds and performs.
TAPE MACHINES NO ALGORITHM CAN REPLICATE
From Fleetwood Mac's Rumours to Isaac Hayes' Hot Buttered Soul. Bill Withers' "Ain't No Sunshine". The Rolling Stones' Sticky Fingers and Exile on Main Street. T. Rex "Get It On". The Beatles — Abbey Road, the White Album. Led Zeppelin III, IV and Physical Graffiti. Chic's "Le Freak". Kate Bush's Wuthering Heights. Bowie's Ziggy Stardust. Michael Jackson's Thriller. Bob Marley. Paul Simon. Queen. Much of the Motown catalogue. All of them recorded and mixed through the 3M tape machine.
The same model is in use every day at 123 Studios. Mixing through this machine can give digital recordings the same classic warmth and tone as all of those classic records we have come to know and love. — an authenticity that no plugin or AI can recreate. This particular machine was owned By Pete Townsend of the Who, originally from his Eel Pie studio .
