Aquarius Studios, Geneva

Established as a 24 track studio in Geneva, Switzerland in 1975 and moving to a new location in 1978 with a studio built by technician Errol Maibach. It is popularly quoted as Patrick Moraz's studio although citation as this being true has not been verified. Chief engineer was Jean Ristori Patrick's close friend and fellow former member of Mainhorse. The premises had a turbulent history after the 1970s, first expanding with a studio B (which was then closed and later reopened). In the mid 1980s the studio was bought over by new management, with one Yanick Ebinger as manager. After this the studio was twice updated with all new digital technology becoming a major studio for soundtracks and multimedia. Aquarius Studios then went into administration in 1999. The Nouvelle Société des Studios Aquarius which took over also went into liquidation in 2006 after several take-overs. Other engineers...
