Does anyone know what pin #55 named CRAZCAN on a Studer A800 does ? - Le Mobile was fortunate at the time to purchase the first Studer A800 in America back in 1978. It was a pre-series serial number 7. At the time the A800 did not have a way to enable a Dolby system into "input" mode while recording. At Guy’s request they’ve inserted this pin to remotely control the Dolby and named it the "CRAZY Canadian" pin. Congratulations to Studer for 70 years of innovations and simply the greatest sounding recorders of our time. #studer #harman #harman_intl #lemobile
Nice! 🙂
I’m always impressed with Guy! He always pushes the enveloppe! 😊
👍😉
Crazy Canadian. Of course.
Aren’t we all a bit crazy loons??
damp- towels for all!
Priceless!!!
Michael Montero might know!
I would get a hold of Les Bateman... Sounds Interchange had a few A800 ... All with Dolby SR...
This is beyond awesome!!!
Don’t forget CRAZAM! Short for Crazy American!! It was also added later at customer request.. was that Guy also?
Salut Guy, I remember having the similar discussion with Studer about the 800 at Studio PSM in Quebec City.
We found and animated this "Vintage" Powerpoint presentation made for Guy speaking about Le Mobile and his career at an Audio Convention along with the great Phil Ramone.
One of the originals but always the best. And rolling in and seeing Guy you knew your day would be great.
Bravo très original. Il y a de beaux souvenirs dans ce montage. WoW WoW...
I first met Guy in 1992 in the alley behind the old rehearsal rooms next door to us at 5744 Lankershim Blvd here in North Hollywood. He was working with a band called Animal Bag for Mercury Records.
Love this clip!
Just plain awesome!Congrats, Guy and Ian.

Where ya’ headed?
Just a fun fact. Over the years Le Mobile has been involved in the recording of over 40 major motion pictures film scores and movie soundtracks. #lemobile #filmscoring #soundtrack

Our "Fly Pak" recording system is not just random gear slapped together but a meticulously well thought out plug and play high quality multitrack recording system. Visit our website for more information. www.lemobile.com
This is how it all started before Le Mobile. Founded by Guy in 1969. Filtronique Stereo HiFi store in Montréal is still in business today.
Who knew?
Those chairs are probably worth a fortune now.
Ça me rappel des belles années
Oh que ça me rappelle des choses!😊
Out curiosity, Guy, what do you listen on at home? Merci!
C’était à l’avant-garde pour l’époque, comme Le Mobile
Snoop Dogg & Charlie Wilson for Steve TV last week. Always a pleasure to work with this great crew.
Back from the Final Four's "March Madness Music Festival" San Antonio, TX, where we recorded and mixed live broadcasts for Turner Sports and Directv with Imagine Dragons, Maroon 5, Panic at the Disco, and several others in TNDV Vibration mobile unit.
Hey Kooster, we found one more !
He used to hide them and crazy me I found them all.
...☹️
That's good luck save it forever
We are very sadden today to hear the passing of our good friend Kooster McAllister. You will be greatly missed.
Kooster was unique, so friendly and the most fun to work with. I can't express the way I feel. The recording industry lost a great friend and a talented engineer.
Oh no what a legend!
Sorry to hear of the loss of a friend Guy.
Sorry to hear this news!
Kooster had been ill for a while but wanted to keep it private. A class act all the way around.
No! So sad. What happened?

Hi Guy! Congrats! I have a graduate from where I work (The Wooden Floor) and he's looking to get into recording. Is it possible for me to bring him by to check out your rig sometime?
This truck & it’s creator are a level of genius all it’s own.
Congratulations Guy and team. From the early days when I met you while working for Don Pearson/ Ultrasound and then down in LA doing wiring for you I knew Le Mobile was special. Keep up the great work!!
Congrats Guy. You're the best 🙂
