Hi there, I found the following information while searching for details about the forthcoming album: ============================ http://www.solid-state-logic.com/news/newsstory.php?id=42 Sting's Latest Album Mixed On XL At Mega Studio, Paris Sting has just completed the mix for his next album, scheduled for release in September, at Thierry Rogen's Mega Studio in Surenes, Paris. Over a two-month period, twelve tracks were mixed by Grammy Award winning engineer Simon Osborne, using Studio A's 96-channel XL K Series Super Analogue console - the largest XL in Europe. A highly experienced mixer, it was Osborne's first introduction to SSL's flagship analogue console and the experience left him extremely enthusiastic. "I'm a long-time fan of the J Series, but this console sounds even better! I found it very straightforward and easy to use. We used the XL for the stereo mix here - we'll mix in 5.1 for the DVD later - and I found the Ultipan automated panning a very useful and timesaving function. Overall I'm extremely impressed and very much look forward to working on the XL again." Sting will release a single in July with the album, DVD, TV Special and world tour following from September. ============================ The article also contains a very interesting picture showing Sting, Kipper, Simon Osborne and Donal Hodgson: http://www.solid-state-logic.com/news/pr/0304/03043l.jpg It's getting more and more exciting....
