Studio X is a multi-purpose production facility that features a professional recording studio and stage for record production, video and performance capture. Our mission is to provide our community with a unique sonic and visual space and the technology they need to create. Studio A is our big room and provides an early 1900s church aesthetic and sound. The control room was built into the original second story choir loft and overlooks the studio. Connected to the control room is an additional isolation room with views of the studio below. Studio A is ideal for orchestral tracking, big drums, film & performance capture.
