EPISODE 6 - global konnekt studio

TC Electronic's Global Konnekt project has been around most of the world. The idea was to create and produce a complete track by sending a hard drive back and forth. Rhythm and bass tracks were recorded in London, guitars in Copenhagen, Vocals in Cleveland and Victoria, mixing in London and now - in episode 6 - the final mastering session in New York! Talk about an international track - Let it Rain! Tons of TC Electronic and TC-Helicon gear has been involved - and for this final touch, a System 6000 MKII does its magic.

Studio Konnekt 48 Press Quotes

Audio Fanzine May 2008 – Sleepless:
"The sound quality is stunning, I constantly rediscover subtle details in tracks or pieces, even if I know them by heart. The SK48 / BM6A association works really nicely, which is hardly surprising, because there’s every possibility that TC R&D uses Dynaudio speakers."

Audio Media March 2008 – Paul Mac:
'Studio Konnekt is a very capable potential addition to any native DAW set-up, and can also double as a standalone unit for field recording and monitoring duties – especially with the remote in the picture. Very nice indeed.'

Sound On Sound April 2008 – Paul White:
'When you consider that the konnekt 48 can save you the cost of a separate monitor controller, and factor in the quality of the onboard DSP effects, its price is very reasonable. The mic preamps sound very clean and transparent – the certainly compare well with anything available on a similarly priced competing interface – and having four of them is very welcome.'
