Yellow Sound Lab chooses Audient

Audient's ACS8024 analogue mixing console was chosen to help realise the vision of producer/engineer Michael Croiter to create his personal studio in New York: Yellow Sound Lab. An uncanny ability to see past the shabby conditions of a defunct hairdressing salon in East Village, helped Croiter successfully put together a petite, yet efficient recording studio within an incredibly tight time frame.

The slimline design of the console was only part of the reasoning behind his choice of the ASP8024, however. Croiter explains: "From the second I thought about expanding my business into a full commercial studio, engineers and sales associates alike were telling me about Audient. I knew I wanted to have an analogue console in my Pro ToolsTM environment, and after hearing the desk, I was very happy with it."

Croiter continues, "I like the amount of possibilities it offers, the clean signal path and the great stereo compressor. It’s just so well thought out in its design. I’ve become a huge advocate for Audient."

Open since August 2006 – an incredible two days before the first scheduled recording session - Croiter's clients have proved to be suitably impressed with Yellow Sound Lab to date. He has recorded and mixed the music for the 26 episodes of Disney's "Johnny and The Sprites", a new weekly television show. The studio is also involved in an assortment of other projects including drum and percussion tracks for singer songwriters.

Audient’s ACS8024 expands on the sonic clarity and full-featured control of the ASP8024 console, bringing integrated workstation control right where it's needed: between the speakers. Fitting either a Digidesign Command 8 or Mackie Control Universal control surface into any of the console bays, the ACS allows instant ergonomic control of transport functions, software mixing and plug-ins.
