We've had the pleasure of working with Studio on Wheels on some remote sessions, recording The Glide Memorial Church Choir and Walter Hawkin's Gospel Choir.     Studio on Wheels provides some great equipment and personnel for mobile recording.  Above is a shot of their Mobile Unit 3 (former Record Plant Mobile).   Get in touch with them next time you're rolling tape, whether it be analog or digital.
