Slater has been in most recently with North Carolina indie artist Ean Hirst. “We had been to several studios in the NY Metro area with mixed results,” says Slater, “and Ean wanted a residential studio to set up in for a bit, so he could be inspired as well as focused.

“Quad Lakeside was the perfect setting, and the SSL AWS900 is punchy and yet very open sounding. I can use it with the 2” analog machine or control Pro Tools HD with it just as easily.”
