STUDIO
Grand Staircase Studios was designed from the ground up to be as flexible as possible to accommodate an incredibly diverse community of musicians. We have the capacity and the desire to host a range of musicians, from acoustic performers to bands and DJs. At the heart of the studio is the control room, which has been created to mix and master music but also to provide an open-ended space for collaboration, performance, and recording. The studio can accommodate many styles and workflows, limited only by one's imagination.
Grand Staircase Studios was also designed to respect and extend the beauty of the land and environment in which is located by utilizing many local materials and motifs, from the stone floor to the plank walls to the cedar branches supporting the mix desk. The studio can accommodate many styles and workflows, limited only by one's imagination. The Lounge and Psyloon are wired for tracking and recording live performances. Live Room Tracking. Control room has a Dante Link to the Psyloon.
With the addition of the Lounge and the Psyloon event space, Grand Staircase Studios is not only world class in its sound but in its adaptability. Coupled with the incredible beauty of its location, the studio can provide you with a creative experience unlike any other.
