Soundville Studios, JMF Audio's power amplification recognition, 30th anniversary
René Zingg, passionate sound engineer and music lover, has been heading Soundville Studios, Lucerne, Switzerland, since 1980. A facility that later upgraded to a Tom Hidley designed recording studio. The passion for audio pushed René to evaluate the innovative JMF Audio power amplification technology. René was supposed to own the most neutral monitoring system and he realized that the French power amplifiers delivered a sound in the control room that was more faithful to the live music played by the musicians behind the glass wall... The American studio designer Tom Hidley was advised to come and listen. Nashville would be the next step. It was in 1988.

In 1988, the Soundville Studios were a two-studio 48 track enabled facility, recording analog or digital with Studer reel to reel desks. The studio has always been world-class, with equal services and equipment to the regarded American facilities. Always ahead, René reported that Soundville Studios were later the first user of a new cutting-edge hard-drive based production solution.
