MIXING-MASTERING

ELKWOOD has an extensive collection of remarkable and unique analogue equipment. Some of the very best. We work in a hybrid style with a mix of digital and analogue. Each production is very different and requires a considered and reflective approach to post-production.
The studio control room is equipped with STRAUSS electroacoustic MF4 precision studio monitors.
There are 3 PYRAMIX post-production suites. We also have Nuendo, Pro Tools, Logic and Wavelab.
DOLBY ATMOS Projects are available.
We can work in all pre and post-production at sample rates of 44.1kHZ – 384kHz PCM/ DSD 64,256, 512fs

MASTERING

We master many of our projects here in the studio. We have a superb nearfield set up and get great results. Craig has trained with Wim Bult in the Netherlands and with Harald Gericke in Germany.

We can master for all digital platforms, CD and vinyl release.
