Drum overhead royalty - everyone's absolute favourite!
Vintage STC 4038 pair from the 1960s.
I always wonder how many records these mics have been used on since they're older than me!
This beautiful vintage '73 Mark 1 is in constant use here at ZigZag and it's not hard to hear why! It's tone is so versatile - sometimes growly and aggressive, sometimes soft and chime-like. Coupled with a nice preamp, or put through some pedals or an amp - it always earns a place within an arrangement!
They say a mixing console is the beating heart of every studio. This beautiful Toft ATB 32 channel desk is no exception! It pumps tasty analog colour into every bit of audio that passes through it.
We believe artists should be able to get hands on with the techy stuff while at ZigZag. The compact and simple design of the Toft means this desk doesn't feel off limits or intimidating for artists while rising to every nerdy challenge an experienced engineer can throw at it!
Featuring the legendary Trident 80b EQ on every channel not only does this desk sound fantastic, it enhances workflow and opens new possibilities with routing audio through outboard and effects.
Who wouldn't wanna use a mic with faux leather on it?!
Everyone loves the mighty Sennheiser Md441!
Despite it's distinctive tone - it's such a versatile mic suiting instruments and vocals alike!
