In Resolution this month…
We report on every aspect of high-end audio production: this month’s craft interviews span a medley of musical genres. From our cover star, currently recording Disturbed’s first new music since 2015’s million-selling Immortalized, through tech-house producer/DJ Ewan Pearson – an adept navigator of shifting dancefloor fashions – to the audio crew organising the glorious gallimaufry of Eurovision (the world’s longest-running annual international television contest) – to the United Music Foundation’s music heritage preservation. We review the Trinnov MC monitor optimizer, DPA’s new d:vote CORE 4099, Lectrosonics’ M2 Duet IEM system, the Nugen VisLM 2, Softube’s re-incarnation of Daniel Weiss’ legendary DS1-Mk3 digital hardware compressor and newcomer Leapwing’s innovative CentreOne stereo image manipulator.
NUGEN Audio VisLM2 reviewed: "Nugen offer every conceivable audio routing standard in 5.1 or 7.1 for either your DAW or your audio stream, if using the stand alone meter. The BBC use Nugen VisLM-H2 for loudness compliance (as any of you that fall foul will know) and Dolby now recommend it as their approved meter. VisLM2 really is THE choice for loudness meters, and nothing else on the market compares to it. It’s solid as a rock, with a low processor overhead and is highly configurable, but easy to use, a very delicate balance that has been deftly handled indeed."

Tape London feature in Resolution Magazine : "Located on Hanover Square in Mayfair, Tape London is a venue with a highly distinctive twist. Not only does it incorporate club and VIP areas, it also features a fully-equipped recording studio geared towards the R&B and urban music styles that tend to dominate the DJ sets in the main room. With contemporary luminaries such as Drake, Lady Gaga and Rudimental passing through the venue, the idea is that musicians and producers will be inspired to create new songs during club nights or subsequent visits to Tape London."
