I haven’t been able to find many recordings on the Nagra VI so I thought it’d be good to post a couple… Unfortunately last week my server went down and most of the audio was somehow lost, I’ll re-upload it all shortly.

Here’s a 320kbps snip of the Nagra VI with a DPA 4017 Shotgun Microphone (in mono of course)

Recording through Nepal and India

Just arrived in Chennai after a 40 hour train ride from Varanasi. The past three weeks we’ve been recording local musicians throughout Nepal and India and have had some magic moments – charged by a rhino during a recording, paragliding in Pokhara with some eagles and recording at Chetsing Palace on the Ganges River. I’m hoping to get enough time to upload some of the recordings in the next few days.

Here’s my 02R studio 3d model. Because its the first studio i modeled, it gets an antique finish. Like the other studios everything is to scale and built using a tape measure in the actual studio.
