This summer I had the pleasure of doing a couple of sessions in a studio which was the best of both worlds. It was essentially a pro equiped studio in a converted village home. It was a newer well constructed home with no issues or ailments, largish rooms (a basement rec room and main floor living room), a couple of isolation boths with room to swing a cat, and a decent sized control room, all reasonably soundtight, and all wired! I would have liked a window(s) between some of the rooms, but there was good communication otherwise. All the necessary wiring was hidden in walls and everything was very clean and organized. It was furnished like a home (I think the owners lived there) and had a very comfortable vibe. It looked like they decorated and moved furniture about for acoustic purposes, for the rooms sounded good. Compared to some of the converted churches, basement and rec-room studios, mobile rigs, and laptop studios I've seen, it was the best. The only thing I disliked was a flight of stairs, but they provided help moving stuff so it was okay.

I haven't heard the tracks we did there yet, so I can't attest to the product yet, but it sure felt nice.

Peace, Mooh.
