New Neve Console mods

Really looking forward to getting the 16 channel return section, built with 80 series parts, and carnhill transformers, installed in my Neve console. Brings the total number of returns to 48 at mix. Finally a monitor section I can really use!!!
   Stories of an SSL are emerging around these parts also....
Stay tuned for that.

ooooooooooooHHHHHH KAYYYYYYYY

Doing a really heavy remix of a polka song today, when I get a call from a neighbor... "IS YOUR BIKE LOCKED UNDER YOUR COVER?!?!?!" THERE IS A HUGE FIRE...ZZZT>>>>ZTTT>.....static static...MOVING IT...."
 So I haul ass out of the studio, in a car service...
I arrive in time to see flames shooting out of the roof of a three story building behind where I live. No threat to my apartment, but the place on fire is 10 feet from where my Ducati was sitting. Thankfully, I didnt have  the handlebars locked under the cover I use, and my neighbor pushed it out of harms way as the flames licked the fence just inches from my front wheel.
  Crazy.
Went to new space today with Stu and Janice. That felt great. That space feels great. I also visited the space that John/Aaron got and it is super cool.
Crazy times in studio land.
   Taking quotes on piano movers to get my new, 100 year old Bosendorfer grand piano up to brooklyn...
Life really only gets more incredible as the years pass. I couldnt feel more fortunate right now.

Pictures

Pictures and some video will be coming soon. I promise. thats why I woke this blog up from a very deep sleep.

SO it begins.

So we are holding keys to a 5000 sq foot space on McCarren park, getting ready to build the studio we always wanted.
  Amazing.
  Stay tuned for some seriously in depth detailed blow by blows on what it takes to build a multi room facility in NYC if you are NOT a millionaire, an investor group, or a business person at all. This wil be an extension of everything I have ever done as a musician.
  This place will be a temple for those of you that have simply stuck to your guns and made it happen for your self.
   I ran around in the empty space today with my 15 month old daughter.
          Yes, there are high hopes.
