What?!? Unlike nearly every other studio around the world, our two “A” suites are identical…in size, equipment, number of light bulbs, you name it; everything but the engineer and wall color are identical. That’s right, no “B” suites here! Step in to either one, close the door, and you’re immediately drawn to the quiet coziness. Once the session begins, the pristine sound will consume you as your project comes to life!
