Your studio makes me think of United Recording, Gold Star in Hollywood, and RCA in Nashville. All of these back in the 50′s and 60′s. But I don’t see any tape machines! (Chuckle.) Bill Putnam had the foresight (very normal with him) at Universal Recording at 111 E. Ontario, Chicago to install polycylindrical baffles. This was around 1953.
Good website. Congratulations.
A great site & what seems like a studio with a great vibe.
thanks man. what an awesomely niche blog you have! I love it. I own about 15 ribbon mics, and a reslo is not among them. i’ve bid on prolly 10 on eBay but nvr managed to get one for the price i wanted… soon enough… funny thing is i bought a BOX for a reslo from angela for a buck years ago… figuring i’d get a reslo soon enough. Angela used to sell NOS reslos in the 90′s for like $60??? or so??? have you seen the old Angela catalog? LMK if you’d like me to send u a scan of their Reslo ad….

Hi Chris, that Angela ad would be nice to see, I don’t think I’ve seen one, only the ones from Ercona.
OK when i find it i’ll send it to you. best, c.
