When Willan Farinango and Jorge Luis Serrano returned to their native Ecuador after years in France, they were determined to build a unique multi-studio offering an all-analogue workflow – epitomising the “British sound.” Their new venture, Estudios El Dorado, a multi-room, multi-purpose production facility in the centre of Quito, Ecuador’s capital city, opened its doors in early 2024 to reveal a Solid State Logic ORIGIN 32-channel analogue mixing console as its centrepiece.
“This is a multi-studio because it is three in one,” explains Jorge Luis Serrano, co-founder and CEO of Estudios El Dorado. “And all of these rooms are interconnected to the SSL ORIGIN console.” Serrano, formerly the Cultural Attaché at the Embassy of Ecuador in France, and Farinango, who studied classical guitar, composition and arranging while living in France for 20 years, believe that Estudios El Dorado is one of only a handful of facilities in South America to offer such a variety of audio and visual services under a single roof. Producer and co-founder Farinango notes that the facility was custom-designed and constructed from the ground up as a versatile audiovisual production studio. “It is unique in Ecuador,” Serrano adds. “There is nothing like this in the rest of the country.”
World-class sound with SSL
As a premier world-class studio in Ecuador, El Dorado is one of the first in the country to feature a large-format analogue SSL mixing console. “The concept in the control room was to offer a 100% British sound in Quito,” Farinango says. “That’s the main characteristic that differentiates us from other studios here in Ecuador — or anywhere in Latin America, I would say.”
