The smaller of the two studios, Studio 505 allows for an intimate recording and teaching experience. The control room is equipped with an SSL K series console and is capable of stereo or 5.1 surround mixing. Like our larger API-based studio, it is fitted with computer and analog based recording equipment and an extensive array of outboard processing gear. The live room is the perfect size for small bands and overdubbing of any instrument.
