FROM WJB

Before I had hardware, I spent a lot of time recording through Focusrite interfaces and UAD Apollo systems using UAD Console. I built this template specifically for people in that position.

I’ve been using a lot more hardware lately, and I know everyone doesn’t have access to a Sony C800, Neve gear, or outboard compressors. That’s exactly why I wanted to release this.

Whether you’re recording through a Focusrite, a UAD Apollo, or straight into your interface at home, this template is designed to give you a professional starting point and produce great results.

I’ve spent years refining these settings so you can spend less time guessing and more time creating.

Enjoy the template.
