I still think that's either a European thing, or it might be my age, but every studio I've ever been in has had a Tascam or Otariā€¦. Prior to that I think Rola was more common - certainly RNZ had lots of them, and the one I have is ex-Radio Otago. Those were radio studios though, the only recording studio I worked in was the one attached to Radio One (OUSA) in Dunedin - Tascam MSR-16 and Tascam 32.

It'd be interesting to find old photos of the likes of Stebbing or York Street though, to see what NZ studios had in that era.
