Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU) installs the Carl Tatz Edition Workstation by Argosy™ in Studio C

MTSU has repurposed its Carl Tatz-designed Studio C into a full PhantomFocus MixRoom™ with the addition of the Argosy CT Edition Workstation to augment its Dual PhantomFocus monitoring system.

Nashville, TN: Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU) has completed its Carl Tatz-designed Studio C transition to a full PhantomFocus MixRoom with the addition of the Argosy Carl Tatz Edition™ Workstation, ideally suited for PhantomFocus™ monitoring, along with the MixRoom's PF eChair™. The University now boasts 11 PhantomFocus Systems to the benefit of both students and professors. Bill Crabtree, MTSU Director, M.F.A in Recording Arts and Technologies and Professor, Department of Recording Industry, comments, “Studio C is predominantly a mix and overdub room, so the transition to the Carl Tatz Edition Dual 15 desk makes perfect sense. Students can mix on our Avid HD system or bring in their own laptop and plug-ins and enjoy very high-quality monitoring through the dual Phantom Focus system. The monitoring is very accurate and uses dual 12" subwoofers paired with the Event Opals and the main Boxer loudspeakers. The ergonomics and minimized reflective properties of the desk are great allowing for easy reach and visibility of the patch bay and signal processors. I think this is now one of our best mix rooms."

All speakers interact with the room they’re in, and the PhantomFocus Monitor System allows any monitors to perform at maximum accuracy – in any room – with a full 20Hz-to-20KHz frequency response and pinpoint imaging in what some owners have described as a “holographic sweet spot.” It is a new level of sonic accuracy that engenders easier, better and faster mixing that translates well in any environment.   There are approximately fifty steps in the proprietary PhantomFocus Monitor System implementation protocol, including phase alignment, system damping, speaker decoupling and isolation mounting, careful assessment of engineer/speaker placement relative to primary axial room modes, proprietary laser-calibrated speaker distancing and angle alignments, digitally-controlled crossover points and slopes for pass filtering, and, proprietary, multiband parametric equalization.   Hardware solutions can include monitor stands, concrete, Sorbothane™ and other isolation and damping materials, custom floating plenum mounts, subwoofer systems and custom digital processors. The PhantomFocus Monitor System evaluation and implementation is a full two-day process and can be applied to near-fields, mid-fields, and large soffit mounted monitors, regardless of manufacturer.   Carl Tatz Design installs the PhantomFocus Monitor System in existing control rooms and in all studios that are designed and built from the ground up by CTD.
