STUDIO TOUR

“The Fortress Of Synthetude” is a computer-based environment designed primarily for scoring to picture, programming, and mixing, featuring high-end monitoring by PMC. Running a 900+ track Logic template networked via 5 computers with Vienna Ensemble Pro, no score or arrangement is too ambitious.

The studio is also a keyboard player's paradise, home to some of the most iconic synths ever made, including pristine vintage classics: Sequential Prophet 5, Yamaha DX5, DX7, and TX816, Roland D-50 and JX-10, Ensoniq VFX, and others - along with current favorites Roland System 8, Fantom 7, Korg Wavestate, Access VIrus TI, Sequential OB-6, Prophet Rev2, and Pro 3 SE, Arturia MatrixBrute, and ASM Hydrasynth - plus a massive collection of the best virtual instruments on the market.
