Live from the station
Broadcasting live right now —
A production-grade music venue · café · community space
By day it's a café and co-working space. At night the music starts and the TV cameras broadcast live to a world-wide audience. Artists walk away with multi-cam video and full multi-track audio recordings.

Continuous programming built from our own archive — and when a show goes live in the room, the live feed takes over, front and center.
The venue
By day, the building hums as a working food production facility. By night it becomes The Elevation Station — a ~150-capacity music venue and café built around one idea: every show is a broadcast-quality recording session.
Think The Old Grey Whistle Test, Soul Train, Midnight Special — tungsten-warm light, rich mids, glowing rooms full of people. A custom house LUT carries that look identically live and in post, on 3840×2160 masters that hold up on every modern platform.
High-CRI warm-white key light reads candlelit-cozy in the room and gorgeous on camera. Color lives on the walls and drapes, never on faces. Festoons and practicals keep the wide shots glowing instead of black.
A warm, beautiful room people want to be in — that happens to be one of the best-instrumented small venues anywhere. The café bridges day and night; the community makes it a place, not just a stage.
Compact flown line arrays keep energy on the audience and off the ceiling, treated acoustics make the tall room part of the recorded sound, and a 96 kHz console with analog-modeled processing gives every show a dedicated broadcast mix.
Two stations, one signal
Two prospective homes on the West Coast — sister rooms sharing one channel, one archive, and one broadcast backbone.
Eugene, Oregon
Down-home warmth in the Willamette Valley — a river town, a college town, a festival town, with the Cascades on the doorstep and a deep well of players and listeners.
≈600,000 people within a one-hour drive · est.
Sausalito, California
On the water at the Golden Gate's doorstep — houseboat bohemia with a world-class address, minutes from one of the deepest live-music audiences in America.
≈4.2 million people within a one-hour drive · est.
The studio
A multi-camera 4K system, broadcast switching, 64-track audio capture, and audience phone-camera angles via the Collectivision platform — installed once, rolling every night.
House sync feeds every camera and the switcher — the way every TV truck has worked for 70 years. Zero-latency clean switching live, and frame-accurate multicam conform in post with no manual sync work.
Every camera is its own 4K recorder with matched timecode; the console multitracks every input. Artists receive full-resolution multicam media of their performance within days — sometimes hours.
Collectivision's phone-camera infrastructure adds audience perspectives no fixed camera can get — streamed low-latency over venue Wi-Fi for live cutaways, timecode-stamped for the final edit.
Any guest camera or laptop connects through a pocket converter and just works — the switcher re-syncs it automatically. The room welcomes collaborators instead of fighting them.
The opportunity
Full-resolution multicam 4K and 64-track audio of every performance creates licensable, sellable media at near-zero marginal cost — and the 24/7 channel keeps that archive working around the clock. Media can easily be repurposed, cropped and clipped for near instant social media posting.
A 150-cap room that hands you a broadcast-quality concert film is a booking magnet. Artists route tours around it.
Livestreams provide opportunities for expanded world reach through free and ticketed broadcasts. A 150-seat room plays to an audience of any size — and the fans who can't travel still buy a seat.
Vertical crops, clips, and highlight cuts come straight off the same multicam masters — the venue feeds artists' and its own social channels continuously, without a second shoot.
Free streams grow the audience; ticketed shows, pay-per-view specials, sponsor-presented broadcasts, and subscriptions all monetize the same night's signal without adding a single seat to the room.
The food business anchors the building's daytime economics; the café bridges day and night; the venue and studio monetize evenings — and the media, forever after.
Every recorded show becomes recurring channel programming — audience growth, artist exposure, and sponsorship & subscription surface area from media already produced.
The venue is a permanent live testbed and public showcase for Collectivision's streaming and audience-camera platform. Every show is a demo.
