Highlighted Features

Studio A at Clear Lake embodies the pinnacle of a world-class Los Angeles recording studio and represents the best tracking room Clear Lake Recording offers. Whether tracking any size ensemble, mixing in a spacious yet accurate control room, or providing the perfect blending of modern and vintage equipment, Clear Lake Studio A will deliver.

    1. Versatile Live Room Dynamics: Craft massive drum sounds with the perfect amount of reverberant decay that adds size and depth while avoiding the muddiness common in many large studios. Additionally, our variety of gobos and adjustable acoustic tools allow us to capture a soulful vocal’s purity and subtle nuances impeccably.

    2. The Classic Trident 80b Console: Elevate your sound with an iconic analog recording console developed in the late 70s by the legendary Trident studios in the UK. Clear Lake’s Trident 80b will compliment every signal coming from our expansive microphone and outboard gear collection.

    3. Adaptable Accommodations: Studio A is your perfect recording haven, from solo virtuosos and poetic singer/songwriters to powerful rock bands and elegant string ensembles.

    4. Acoustical Mastery: Our control room boasts a legendary acoustician George Augsperger design that uniquely allows for a very large control room while retaining a prominent and accurate listening position that translates perfectly to the real world.

    5. Uncompromised Sound Clarity: Experience your authentic sound in Clear Lake that will resonate with perfection and translate regardless of where it’s played.
