Welcome to our silly blog!!



hi folks,

this is the blog of the studio we like to call the endless summer institute of sound. we're a personal studio in lovely kent, oh. if you're here and reading this, you probably know us anyway, so let's move on...

this picture is of our lastest addition to the studio, a early 70's vintage helios mic pre/eq module. these babies are rare. helios was the name of a console company started by dick swettenham who worked at abbey road, then built a console for olympic studios (rolling stones, beatles, hendrix, etc) and then started to build consoles for other UK studios and then started to branch out the the U.S. each console was custom built!

for more of the helios story go to:http://www.helios-electronics.com/The_Story/the_story.html

so, anyway, we're so thrilled to add this 'weapon' to our already pretty damn good arsenal of vintage gear. we'll start talking about our other gear and post pics here too in the next few weeks. jason, my partner in the studio, will also post here as well. this blog will be mainly about what's goin' on at the studio but might also be about music, politics, etc. we hope you enjoy it...

cheers,

kevin
