Alan Parsons, British audio engineer, musician, and record producer, uses ASC TubeTraps for mixing and mastering. Parsons notes that TubeTraps are also an effective tool in an era when more and more studios are in unconventional settings. “The room is part of a house, and as such it often isn’t of ideal proportions,” he says. “The absorptive properties of the TubeTraps make a big difference - the difference between a room being a room or it being an accurate monitoring environment. Without Tube Traps here, I would be dealing with a lot of unwanted distortion. So they definitely make a huge difference to me.”
