   About Excello Recording

Control Room: 21' x 16' x 15' w/ skylights

"Quietly and with rock-solid determination, Excello Recording has served the New York rock community for over 11 years."- Mix Magazine. Quality analog and digital recording conveniently located in Williamsburg Brooklyn

From MIX Magazine, October 2006
By David Weiss

The technical importance of having a great console in a control room has arguably shifted in the past several years, but the emotional significance has not. Special mixing desks have the power to inspire, and in the hands of the right engineer, can take a tracking or mix session to a place that a DAW alone just can't.

EXCELLO RECORDING is home to a spacious and airy live room on one side of the glass and a tank-like Calrec Series B 40x16x18 console on the other. Built exclusively for the BBC, the board is one of only four of its type ever constructed, and it was used to broadcast and record from London's Royal Albert Hall from 1990 to 1999. Put into retirement by the Brits, it has since found a most appreciative fan club in Brooklyn.

"The BBC wanted a console with what you want, too," says Excello partner/engineer Hugh Pool. "Low distortion, loud and clean with tons of headroom. All of the output cards have hand-wired Lundahl transformers, and the weight when you pull them out is amazing - approximately six ounces per board." Although Excello initially sought a Neve or API to complement its wealth of vintage gear (including an equally notable Neve 12x4 1063 sidecar), the studio and its clientele have fallen in love with the Calrec's extreme flexibility and ultra-low noise.


Live Room: 40' x 24' x17' w/2 skylights
