Tyrese Gibson’s Black Rose Mixed On PhantomFocus System

Multi-platinum and award-winning engineer Richard Furch mixes number one album in the world with Carl Tatz Design.

Multi-platinum/award-winning L.A.-based engineer and mixHaus Studios owner Richard Furch continues to rely on the PhantomFocus System (PFS).

The Carl Tatz Design was recently used to mix multi-media superstar Tyrese Gibson’s new blockbuster album Black Rose.

“What a week! @tyrese,” Tweets Furch.

Black Rose opens at #1 on the Billboard 200, #1 Top R&B/HipHop Albums, #1 R&B albums, #1 Apple Music, and #1 iTunes overall and R&B charts. It’s #1 in 15 countries’ iTunes charts as of August 1.

“It’s great music and I’m proud of having mixed and recorded it.” notes Furch.

TEC Award-winning studio designer and creator of the PhantomFocus System monitor tuning protocol Carl Tatz, principal of Carl Tatz Design (CTD), states, “Nothing is more gratifying to us than our clients’ successes with the PFS.”

Tatz goes on to point out, “The immense value and satisfaction of working with the PFS is reiterated by users’ informative testimonials.”

“I’ve worked out of my own studio, the mixHaus in Los Angeles, for the last five years, and always had multiple top-of-the-line speaker systems tuned by some of the leading acousticians in the industry. But I always felt that mixing music should be more effortless and translate better. Enter the Carl Tatz PhantomFocus System.”

“Carl and his team came in and tweaked the room, installed my speakers in the best location for this particular room and implemented the PFS for an accurate response down to 25 Hz. The sound staging is impressive and the vocals sound like they are right in front of you, a feeling akin to going from 480p to 4K HD resolution in the video world. But on top of that, the system doesn’t just sound pleasing, it translates expertly. It most certainly gives me peace of mind that what I hear is accurate to what the record sounds like, which shaves off hours from the mix process and results in better mixes all over the map. Client approval is faster, and I can’t imagine going back to any other system. I keep recommending it to my colleagues. Thank you Carl for installing the first PhantomFocus System on the West Coast at the mixHaus.”
