Premium sound in a comfortable setting

John's Garage

 

 

 A professional analogue/digital recording studio stuffed into a garage. Put together with the idea that so many have a passion to record and express themselves. "My original idea. was to emulate the sound of those old analog studios of the early 50's and 60's but as things progressed so did the idea of getting the best sounds with a combination of analogue outboard gear and digital interfaces and an wide assortment of plugins. If you want  every new bell and whistle this may not be the place for you but if you want a professional, realistic, slightly larger than life version of your musical ideas, I would like to help achieve that goal. Conveniently located in Chicago’s Northwest suburbs: Get quality tracking/recording and mixing in a friendly setting. I also provide restorations of previous recordings.

To help vocalists achieve the best recordings possible I recently added a Lauten Atlantis Microphone.  

To bring the “Place” up to date I also have finally took the plunge.  ---- The Studio is now Mac Studio M2 powered and it seems tat tis new machine is everything it was cracked up to be.

Develop your authentic sound. Let your creativity lead the way in an environment that supports imagination and originality. Track your project here you will have quality tracks for mix down or Mastering. Rates are low and quality is high.
