Mentioned in this November 18, 2009 Universal Audio blog interview.
I do sort of a hybrid approach. I use external summing. I have a few different ways that I do that. I change it up sometimes. I have the Dangerous box, which is a great piece of gear. I have the Fulcrum, which is a passive summing device, and then I have a custom Quad-8 console. It’s a Coronado, which is a 40-channel desk, like a late '70s design, early '80s. I had it made into two sidecars. So those three things I sort of switch off between them, use them in combination.
I've never heard of that board. A Coronado?
It's from Quad-8. They were built in North Hollywood. They're really excellent. Some of the design engineers from API were part of this company, and Dean Jensen. It has Jensen transformers in it. It's a pretty extraordinary console, just because the headroom that it has, and the sound. Sonically, to me, it sounds like a combination between an API and a classic Neve.
