Studio A — The Tracking Room
Studio A is the reason this building exists. When we found the old warehouse in 2011 it had been a print shop, a church, and briefly (we're told) an illegal boxing gym. What it had all along was 14-foot ceilings and a floor that makes drums sound huge.
The live room is roughly 1,100 square feet with a mix of absorptive and diffusive treatment — live enough for a room mic to matter, dead enough that you can still punch in. There's a dedicated iso booth big enough for a guitar cab and a stubborn guitarist, plus sight lines to the control room from every corner.
- Best for: full band tracking, drums, string sessions, live-off-the-floor records
- Capacity: comfortably 8 musicians, uncomfortably 14 (ask us about the mariachi session)
- Rate: $65/hr, $480 day lockout (10 hours), weekly rates on request
Studio B — The Mix Suite
Studio B was built in 2015 when we got tired of mixing in a room designed for tracking. It's a purpose-built control room around our 32-channel desk, treated and tuned by Arturo Meza — the same acoustician who did two of the big rooms downtown. Translation is the whole point: what you hear in here is what your record sounds like in the car, on earbuds, and on your bandmate's terrible Bluetooth speaker.
- Best for: mixing, mastering sessions, overdubs, vocal comping
- Monitoring: main soffit-mounted monitors, nearfields, and the famous "grot box" for reality checks
- Rate: $50/hr, $380 day lockout, attended or unattended mixing available
The Den — Writing Room & Vocal Booth
The Den is the small room where records start. A proper vocal booth, a production desk with the essentials, a couch that's absorbed a decade of demos, and a door that closes. It rents by the hour for vocals, voiceover, podcasts, and writing days — and it's where most of our regulars rough out material before booking Studio A.
- Best for: vocals, voiceover, podcasts, writing sessions, pre-production
- Rate: $30/hr, $220 day lockout
