Studio A was designed by the legendary audio architect and recording studio designer, John Storyk , of WSDG Walters-Storyk Design Group and constructed by Rob Chalmers of R. L. C. Management, L. L.C. for Balance Studios and Grammy Award winning Producer, Dave Fortman. Shortly after, the studio was taken over and run for the next 15 years by Master Engineer Jonathon Treeby. Rabadash Records took over in August of 2021, interfacing the heart and soul, our Vintage Harrison Analogue 32/48 Console, see BRUCE SWEDIEN AND THE HARRISON 32C SERIES CONSOLE.
The studio consists of one large acoustically perfect recording room, hard wood floors, completely isolated from all outside noise and from the two beautiful isolation rooms and the large, comfortable control room. Triple glass makes the isolation totally complete between each room.
The monitoring is a custom designed system by Dynaudio. Near fields, midfields, and the large up top monitors give the best mixing environment in Louisiana.
