Our Rooms

Our floated rooms were acoustically designed by Rod Gervais (Power Station, NYC) and built by Frank Comentale (Hit Factory, NYC) The chief aim was to give our artists and musicians the best sounding room possible for recording/mixing and the most comfortable environment for getting creative juices flowing. Frank also designed our silent central A/C system a crucial element when choosing a studio. The amount of heat build up from gear can be considerable but offsetting it should not be at the cost of the noise of a cooling system sharing your tracks. At the heart of our mix room is a vintage Neve console with the same summing amplifiers as the reknowned Neve 8060 (my personal favorite). We have just the right amount of vintage tube pre amps, compressors and equalizers to transform the tone of the digital world and give it the depth of analog. We also have a client kitchen so feel free to pack a lunch.
