The Control Room
The Control Room is the nerve centre of the Studio, with a spacious 61sqm area. The acoustic design ensures a flat, even listening environment, enhanced by natural light and a floating frame construction that isolates it from external noise. This set-up provides an unparalleled mixing experience, making it easy to achieve balanced, high quality sound.
Audio philosophy
At Martian AV, our philosophy centers on meticulous detail, from isolating the studio’s AC power to our cabling system. All equipment is powered by a custom, balancing transformer for stability, separate from lighting and AC to avoid interference. Gold-plated connectors, 110 OHM AES/EBU cables, and careful grounding prevent unwanted noise and maintain pristine sound quality throughout the studio. This rigorous setup ensures every recording benefits from exceptional clarity and depth, bringing out the best in our high-end gear for unparalleled results.
