The CHiTT List: Operations Manual and Gear Inventory

Current gear includes a mix of computers and peripherals sufficient to record simultaneously up to 12 tracks of CD quality audio (expanding soon to 16). Overall projects are expandable up to 48 tracks. We use firewire and PCI audio interfaces and our software platforms of choice are from Steinberg and Image Line ... & Adobe, reluctantly, when we have to...

If you must know, we use Windoze.

All other recipes are trade secrets, exposed only by communique at CHiTT Productions current headquarters.

CHiTT Productions uses a selection of industry standard microphones in the guerrilla recording process. Most of our constantly expanding inventory is owned by CHiTT Productions, but since we're not rich and still have to work day jobs until this revolution sparks, we rely on the networks we've created to help us get the really extensive projects completed. No person is an island in this journey, and we've got comrades along the way.

That being said, mics are a collectively owned venture. CHiTT Productions owns a base inventory that can run "standard" band setups, but we also have a network of kind souls always willing to loan a piece or two from their personal/band collection when the input list exceeds our current inventory or calls for something particularly snazzy. We're open to negotiotiations.
