Our studio is located in Calgary, AB, about 10 minutes west of downtown. The studio features a hybrid recording and mixing setup offering the best of both the analog and digital worlds inlcuding high-end preamps, outboard compressors, equalizers, and converters as well as the latest software, plugins, samples, and virtual instruments. We also have a great selection of analog and digital keyboards, amps, guitars, percussion, and pedals available for use.

The studio space, including a large control room and recording room, features oak hardwood floors, natural light, and full acoustic treatment and sound-proofing. We pride ourselves on providing a relaxed and comfortable, yet productive working-environment for bands and solo artists. We work exclusively on music so our studio is 100% catered to musicians and creating the best possible atmosphere for making music. Please contact us to arrange a studio tour.
