Studio A

Hear what they hear

The producer’s side of a recording studio with a wide sound board, two chairs, and different sound equipment

Circa 1975-2004

Studio A is a full-service 24 track studio designed by Carl Yancher of Wave:Space. This studio consists of two cutting rooms designed for music production, complete with tie lines into Studio D. The first cutting room contains two isolation chambers as well as a 220 square foot recording area - great for vocal overdubs.

The second cutting room, designed for drum tracking and guitar overdubs, offers a 210 square foot recording area accented in hardwood surfaces with RPG acoustic diffusers and bass traps. The control room, an excellent mix room, combines a mixture of custom vintage gear with today's most modern technology.

This combination enables Studio A to provide every possible need for today's modern productions.
