Tour Of A&M Studio A Console Used From 1967-1975

This legendary console was custom built by Howard Holzer for A&M Studios in 1969. It was in service through the 70's and certainly a significant contributing factor to the amazing sonic quality of A&M Records releases during the period.

A&M Studios exclusively used custom built Holzer consoles in ALL of their studios during this time period...5 altogether - this desk is one of two that were fitted with mic pres (the other three were line level mix only desks).
It's believed to be the only fully functional A&M console left in the world.

Some of the artists that recorded on these custom desks include: Carole King, Herb Alpert, Joni Mitchell, James Taylor, Phil Spector, The Carpenters to name a few - which produced some of the best sounding records of the era.
