About us | Sitemap |  Fontsize: A  A

The studio of Treasure Music is a DAW based, digital project studio. For recording we use Steinberg Cubase Studio (for audio, midi and softsynths). Clicking on the tabs above you can read further information about the studio and its hardwares and processors.


The sounds and feelings of the '50s and '60s recordings are achieved through the help of the well experienced Sound Engineers of Phoenix Studio (www.phoenixstudio.hu) and the acoustics and analog technic in Studio B ("vintage" recordings).

Please click on the pictures if you would like to see studio B .

White 2A (vintage) Leveling Amplifier

The White 2A Leveling Amplifier was originally designed for Broadcasting, but quickly became one of the favourite hardwares of the audio industry. It is a very useful help for mixing vocals and accoustic bass. Below you can see the original hardware and the plug-in is above.

Black 76

Black 76 (vintage) compressor/limiter

The Black 76 Limiting Amplifier is a legendary hardware of the industry. It is a suitable compressor for almost everything from tracking to mixing. Above you can see the plug-in while the original hardware is below.

Thu Jun 18, 12:49 PM © Treasure Music

Fairchild 670

Fairchild 670 (vintage) compressor

The "Holy Grail" of compressors/limiters. You can see the original model on the picture below and the digital reproduction of IK Multimedia above. Owing to Sonic Character Cloning and Dynamic Saturation Modeling this unit treats your tracks like the original one.

Thu AUG 20, 21:46 PM © Treasure Music

Pultec EQP-1A Equalizer

Pultec EQP-1A (Vintage) equalizer

This eq is as famous as the Fairchild among the compressors. You can give the analog warmth to your recordings with the help of this eq. The digital model from IK Multimedia (above) recreates the workflow of the original Pultec units (below).

Classic Compressor

T-RackS Classic Compressor

The brand new version of the well known mastering software compressor from IK Multimedia. You can use it as a standalone application and as a plug-in as well. On the picture below you can see the previous Classic Compressor model.

Fri AUG 21, 08:55 AM © Treasure Music

Opto Compressor

T-RackS Opto Compressor

Made by IK Multimedia. It makes possible to use the so called "seethrough compression" on your tracks. A quite big adventage of this kind of compression that it is free of distortion at all, besides it makes no harm on the sonic picture. On the picture below you can see the industry standard Tube-Tech CL1B classic opto compressor.

Fri AUG 21, 08:55 AM © Treasure Music

Linear Phase Eq

T-RackS Linear Phase Equalizer

An extremely useful unit from IK Multimedia. You can use this eq for mixing, or for mastering. A "seethrough eq" for professional mastering work. Of course you need good ears too :)

Fri AUG 21, 12:47 PM © Treasure Music

Classic EQ

T-RackS Classic Equalizer

The old/new classic from IK Multimedia. This 6 band parametric eq is a very handy tool for mixing and mastering. You can see the new model above while the previous model below.

Fri AUG 21, 12:59 PM © Treasure Music

Multiband Limiter

T-RackS Classic Multiband Limiter

Another old/new classic from IK Multimedia. This multiband limiter is a very handy tool for mixing and mastering. You can see the new model above while the previous model below.

Fri AUG 21, 14:13 PM © Treasure Music

Brickwall Limiter

T-RackS Brickwall Limiter

The "Wall". Using this limiter you can make your tracks sound louder, though this way you are going to make hard changes on the natural dynamic of your recordings!

Fri AUG 21, 15:04 PM © Treasure Music

Classic Clipper

T-RackS Classic Clipper

The limiter before the "Wall". This unit has a very similar effect to the brickwall limiter, however it has a smoother effect on the sound and less destruction on dynamics. It can add a nice analog warmth to the tracks.

Fri AUG 21, 15:10 PM © Treasure Music

Metering Suite

T-RackS Metering Suite

Here you can see what you were listening to sonically. Starting above: Full metering suite view, left-right Peak meters, RMS, PL meters (left hand side), Phase and correlation meter (on the right hand side), Spectrum analyser (bottom).
