Best Of British Come Together For Recording Success

London’s historic Abbey Road studios have chosen Burnley audio and production specialists AMS Neve to supply their latest recording console.
The state-of-the-art 60-channel Neve 88RS analogue console, considered the best film scoring solution by Hollywood’s top studios, replaces an older model by AMS Neve, supplied more than 20 years ago.
AMS Neve has a longstanding link with Abbey Road after Managing Director Mark Crabtree took a sample of his first ever product there 33 years ago.
Mark said: “I took a day off work and drove to London with my business partner and our wives, determined to show Paul McCartney our prototype.”
Incredibly, Paul was at the studios - he loved the product and ordered one.
Mark said: “We’re thrilled Abbey Road chose the Neve 88RS for Studio Two – it’s proof our products are the world’s best for sound quality and longevity.”
Jonathan Smith, Abbey Road Studio Manager, said: “Abbey Road has always invested in the best cutting edge technology to optimise the sound of our wonderful rooms - we are delighted to have installed the finest analogue console in the world’s most famous and iconic studio.”
The 88RS console has most recently been used for the latest series of Live From Abbey Road, featuring artists like Blondie, Noah and the Whale, Kaiser Chiefs, Lykke Li, Rumer and Brandon Flowers.
AMS Neve designs and manufactures all products at its Billington Road Industrial Estate base. For more information, visit www.ams-neve.com
