    Sysound Records & Studios

    Is the workplace of audio engineer and musician Mihai Pop, proud owner of a Neve Console board, used to record half of the classic rock albums.

    Here at Sysound you have the chance to discover why Metallica, Pink Floyd, Nirvana, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Led Zeppelin, Iggy Pop or Deep Purple chose to record their albums through a Neve.

    Most studios have one or two Neve preamps. Sysound has 20 preamps at your disposal, so not only the vocals or an instrument go through the Neve, but each microphone and line-in.
