Cape Audio College – Studio 1 gets a Face lift

New developments complete in the cosy little corner that used to be studio 1.  Studio 1 was always a well equipped studio, sporting the famous Mackie 8 Buss recording console, NS-10 monitoring and a pretty serious looking rack box. For years students have enjoyed the the benefits of this top end project studio setup.  A full featured 48 channel analogue mixer provides great diversity when considering mixing and recording options.
