The Studio:

The Millstream is in my home in a quiet suburban neighborhood of Toronto.  People who have recorded here always remark on how comfortable it is and how it lacks the usual pressures of conventional recording studios.  When we are recording, the entire house can be used: i.e. different musicians in different rooms for isolation and different acoustics.  The main studio room contains all of the equipment and is used also for overdubbing.  No glass separates the recording space from the engineer/producer so communication is quick and effective.  The room has a pleasant neutral acoustic.  For musicians in different rooms, closed circuit television allows for visual contact. 

The equipment covers all of the basic essential requirements and has been chosen to provide the best quality natural sound.  The finest quality microphones and mic preamps ensure pristine reproduction. The Millstream is about recording acoustic music as faithfully as possible.
