Hopefully it's alright to post this here, we'll try and get an "official company forum" here eventually.
We'd like to introduce you to the most revolutionary online service there is today.
mixanalog.com
MIX:ANALOG is a web application that let's you control real analog gear over the internet, through your browser (doesn't work in Safari, since it does not support FLAC ), using a graphical user interface.
While you're tweaking the settings, the playback is streamed to you in up to 24-bit/192khz lossless format. When you're satisfied with the sound, you can bounce and download the results.
There are still a few bugs though and some missing features. If you want to help us get stuff done faster, help us by providing us with user feedback. We'll be super-happy and will reward you with free use-credits (whatever the pricing system we'll be testing at the moment).
How to use the app:
- UPLOAD a file you want to process
- press PLAY and TURN THE KNOBS
- TWEAK the settings
- switch to the DOWNLOAD tab and get the file
- BURL B80 with BDA8 and BAD4 units
- Distopik FC670 (hi-grade reincarnation of the Fairchild)
- Distopik EQP-1A (hi-grade 2U reincarnation of the Pultec)
- Distopik Precision MEQ (sontec/gml inspired 5-band eq)
- soon Telefunken M15 (automated!, in about 1-2 weeks))
- soon Bettermaker Mastering Limiter (in about 2-3 weeks)
- about 8 more pieces to be added this year (including Elysia and Gyratec products)
Mini FAQ:
- we modded the gear mostly with our "in-house" custom electronics, a few digipots and lots of relays
- until we get the booking feature working, remote control access will be give out on the first come, first served basis
- internet speed of 5Mbit/s is recommended, but customer support reports successful sessions at 2Mbit/s
- you can download your processed tracks in .WAV or .MP3 formats, .OGG and .FLAC will be added to the list later
- we provide full support for Firefox and Chrome browsers
- MIX:ANALOG is developed by Distopik d.o.o., an audio technology R&D company based in Slovenia, European Union
