According to the producer’s longtime engineer/mixer, Mike Piersante, the U.K.-manufactured ATC SCM150ASL Pro reference monitors that Burnett purchased from exclusive U.S. distributor Las Vegas Pro Audio not only fill the room with faithfully accurate sound but also ensure a perfect translation to the mastering studio. “I find them to be… View this story

How incredible a deal? Try three of them for… View this story

I saw a lot of creativity, and a lot of usefulness, and a lot of both. There wasn’t one single product that was a… View this story
