I’m an independent producer / engineer who
has fallen in love with your products. I now own
two 8-channel HV-3Ds and an STT-1 Origin. You’ve
really got it down. Thank you for making it all
work. Thank you, also, for taking the time to write
decent manuals, and to ensure they’re proofread.
Chris Walla, Death Cab for Cutie
I love this box. It has a million colors, so long
as you are after shades of clean. I also love the
fantastic sounding EQ and piece-of-cake-to-make-sound-good
compression that tracks so beautifully.

She has a huge dynamic range and they were having
to ride the gain. They loved the STT-1 on the voice.
She said “It’s not squashing me,”
when in fact it was cutting 9 dB on her loud notes.
We had to look over at the needle to verify that
it was compressing her: very transparent. It retained
the integrity of her voice over the full dynamic
range of the compressor. The STT-1 has both depth
and presence.
Jim Meyer, Bass & Vocals, Jimmy Buffet Band
I love my STT-1s. Major league sound - clean, crisp
and the tubes are marvelous, just really love ‘em.
I’m using a little bass roll off and barely
1 dB of compression. The compression is the finest
I’ve ever heard and the EQ just blends and
enhances the whole. Simply amazing. I’m using
vacuum tube out on both stages, transformer out,
and the loud sections just float gracefully, making
the whole thing sound even better. Bravo.

Way to go John –as usual! I shudder to think
of what our sound might be like today without Millennia
electronics
in the chain. Thanks a million times over.

International
I finally got a new STT-1, and I suppose there’s
a million good things I could say about it, but
in a nutshell, I’m really impressed with how
it offers 128 shades of transparent sound. For bass,
I love the tube pre for old school sound, and the
J-FET pre for more modern tones, and I love the
DC-to-light frequency response and infinite headroom.
There’s nothing like a clean preamp. And they
have more gain than a Marshall factory. I could
go on and on...

The equalizer is simply wonderful on everything we ran through it, whether you¹re cutting or boosting. You might find a particular character
Eq (maybe a Pultec) you like better for a given application, and there are digital equalizers that are more surgical, but it's hard to imagine any processor on the planet that can shape the sound more unobtrusively and sweetly than this one. You can crank bands way up (the range is ±15db) without it sounding the least bit electronic or harsh. Likewise subtle cuts, boosts, or shelving sound completely natural
The STT-1 Origin is a fantastic recording channel that can be amazingly versatile. This level of gear requires a substantial investment, but in this case the price is appropriate and it's an investment in something that won't become obsolete and lose half its value before you get it home.
