As the first step in the signal chain, the mic preamp is imperative in capturing excellent audio. The 78’s incorporate the same high-quality Class A Discrete preamp as the 88’s. These preamps have lots of headroom and high gain fully capable of driving ribbon microphones. #trident #tridentaudio #historyrefined #tridentconsole #analog #recordingstudio #analogconsole #trident78

Space was a problem in the control room at Trident. They needed a 16 track desk that would fit in a space of 1.5m but also be able to be upgraded to accommodate 24-track in the near future. After discussions with various manufacturers, Trident decided to build the console themselves. A room was set aside on the top floor of the studios and after a year of experimentation, design, and building, the first desk was finished and installed. The Trident A-Range was born. #trident #tridentaudio #historyrefined #tridentconsole #analog #recordingstudio #analogconsole #trackedontrident #tridentarange #tridentstudios

📸🔥🗣: @piquerecording Grateful to have a pair of Trident A-Range 500 series EQ modules here at @piquerecording (only 1 pictured). …like, can you say BITing guitar… 🎸 nothing does it quite like these! Bright and present without becoming strident. I love the discrete and true-to-the-original signal path too… it has inductors in the lower and mid bands! If it ain’t broken don’t fix it kinda thing. The high and low pass selectors are very useful too; engage multiple filter frequencies for an even steeper roll off🔥❤️ Great info via Wikipedia: “David Bowie, Rod Stewart, and Frank Sinatra are among the early artists who first recorded hit records on Cherokee's first A Range console. With only 13 consoles ever built of this model, the Trident A-Range has attained a near-mythical status in the professional recording industry… Though it had a very limited run, the Trident A-Range console gained a reputation for its very distinct and pleasant sound with a very "musical" EQ section. Along with channel strips from early Neve and Helios consoles, original Trident A Range modules have kept a healthy resale value and are much sought after by engineers who like to combine old-school analog gear with leading-edge digital recording technology." #piquerecording #trident #tridentaudio #arange #tridentarange #500series #eq #historyrefined

On this day in 1973, Elton John released "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road." Though the bulk of the recording happened elsewhere, the remixing and overdubbing of this masterpiece was recorded at Trident Studios, giving further rise to that "Classic British Rock Sound" #trident #tridentaudio #historyrefined #tridentstudios #musichistory

The 78 consoles are split/inline consoles with individual channels in 4-way panels. Using an 8 subgroup configuration and incorporating 6 Aux sends, its routing options are vast and simple to use. Connections are fast and easy with DB-25’s throughout the board and XLR’s for speaker and main outputs. #trident78 #analog #mixing #console #historyrefined
