Studio A

scroll for specs ↓

Built in the sanctuary of a 100-year-old church, Studio A houses a 38′ x 50′ main tracking room with 30′ ceilings, four large isolation booths and stained glass windows. The 25′ x 32′ x 16′ control room features a custom 80-input + 64-monitor, all Discreet Neve 8078., the largest of its type in the world. The large room has ideal acoustic dimensions for that big rock and roll drum sound, or an 80-piece orchestral recording. The A Lounge is conveniently located a floor below the A control room. It is equipped with a full kitchen, an entertainment center, billiards table, a large couch and dining table, and includes private bathrooms. It’s an ideal space for band meals, catered events, or just relaxing while the other musicians perfect their parts in the studio above.
