Major C Studios is frequently upgrading to the latest hardware and software to stay at the front of the pack in terms of music production.  Whether its orchestral string arrangements or heavily processed electronics, our gear is always being updated so we can offer you a product that is truly up to scratch!

Intel’s new range of core i3, i5 and i7 processors allow us to run music heavyweights like Logic Pro, Pro Tools and Avid SIbelius on multi-core chips.  This particular upgrade will mostly affect Christopher’s mobile work including scoring music whilst abroad and working on-site when a music session needs to be perfected asap.

Machine: Apple Macbook Pro 2010

Speed: Intel i7 2.66 gHz (overclocks to 3.33 gHz automatically for intensive audio/video work)

What does this mean for music?  It means being able to take advantage of bigger sample libraries, upgrading from 16-bit to 24-bit audio quality, faster and cleaner score production and all in a ready-to-be-mobile package.

Major C Studios uses the following software regularly:

Avid Pro Tools 8

Avid Sibelius

Apple Logic Professional 8

Renoise 2.6

Max/MSP 5

Supercollider

Various sample libraries (including East West Quantum Leap Orchestral Libraries)

The ability to work through previous sounds with better quality and speed will likely impact on this website in the coming months.  Expect new showreel audio and video!
