Our head engineer, Glenn Wheeler, has started a video series on SSL Duality Tips & Tricks. The Solid State Logic Duality is an analogue mixing console, but acts like a digital console.  I call it the “Maserati” because:

1.  It sounds so amazing, I can hardly hide my excitement

2.  It’s sexier than a black Porsche convertible with a brunette model inside

3.  It makes me want to make big-room, dirty techno

4.  I have a photo of it on my vision board (I also have a photo of the Maserati, HA)

Check out our SSL Duality Tips & Tricks Vol. 1.  Feel free to ask any questions you might have on this topic of routing efx through the SSL Duality.

Country singer-songwriter Bryan Harkness, who Tierra Music signed in May, is spending a lot of time at Tierra Studios this month recording 13 songs for his upcoming album. The record will come out in January 2010, but people will get a chance to hear his single “We Don’t Have to Walk Alone” long before that. Stay tuned for more.

Glenn, Traey, Aaron and Larry worked hard in May to rewire Studio A. They prepped the room for the installation of our new Solid State Logic Duality mixing console. Photos by Angela Grant and Aaron Morris.

Producer Robert Linder and arranger Bernie Hatch have been working hard at Tierra Studios lately on a jazz standard album, featuring Houston saxophonist, Larry Slezak and his band. The songs are a collection of jazz standards and original tunes by Bernie Hatch and Larry Slezak. Here we see engineer Glenn Wheeler preparing to track string musicians for the album.

Tierra Studios’ producer Gilbert Sedeno recently had his Hammond B3 organ and Leslie Tone Cabinet shipped from Dallas to Houston. The organ is now residing in Tierra Studios’ A room, and is a welcome addition to the family.

Merino has been at Tierra Studios lately working hard to finish his album. Jorge is a very talented musician and plays all the instruments on his album. Traey Hatch engineered the session.

Producer Gilbert Sedeno, fresh off the road from touring with Ray Price, Willie Nelson, and Merle Haggard, has been in Tierra Studios cutting horns for Pura Vida. In addition to composing the original works, Gilbert also played piano on the tracks, with Traey Hatch co-producing and Aaron Morris engineering.
