Studio A
The engine of Romaphonic: one room, endless possibilities
In our Studio A the capabilities of a modern studio live alongside the character and the feel of the great classic recordings. A 32-channel API 2448 console is the heart of the control room, joined by a carefully chosen selection of analogue and digital gear, both classic and contemporary.
The live room has a variable acoustics system that lets it adapt to different styles, from rock to classical music. Large movable side panels and motorised acoustic clouds make it possible to change how much it absorbs and reflects, moving the reverberation time between 0.4 and 0.8 seconds.
The result is a versatile room, able to adapt its acoustic character to what each artist and each production needs.
