It also helps that the Big Lebowski is one of my favorite movies! His rates are extremely fair and his studio is top notch. It's almost like a speak easy. You expect it to look totally different then when you walk in your transported to a dope studio. He's extremely fast with response time as well as getting the sound and instruments that you need for every track. I definitely will use him in the future and feel fortunate to have been Refered by my husband and his band. If you're looking for a Orange County studio, you have found the place. The main recording room is big enough for an entire band or a solo artist. Enjoy!

In fact all his gear is best of breed. He's been recording for a long time and his experience is second to none. We said it before - you can go to LA and pay 3-4x the price for the same level of quality. That's really what makes this studio a gem - value and attention to detail.

I thought it would be intimidating because I don't know anything about recording, but Elliot was so graciously patient and encouraging to help me get everything sounding exactly right.

As an artist paying for studio time, that's incredibly distracting and disrespectful. I did not feel valued as a client. After leaving, I was repeatedly asked to rebook, instead of being asked how the session went. Bad vibes kill creativity. I would never go back. UPDATED Feb 1-11:24pm After leaving this review, the owner Elliot messaged me AGAIN on Instagram. Took zero accountability and only cares about his image. NOT the client. To address your comment, I asked for a discount, cuz your interns run the session. As Indie artists we have to fight to protect a space we paid for. Often times we don't have other options in the area so we suck it up, but no more! This is not a good studio. I would not go back. Look at how he responds to feedback...

I am completely dumfounded that someone could leave a negative review of Frank's efforts in any…read morecapacity, whether they be studio drumming, lessons, recording--you name it. He is a consummate professional and one of the hardest working people I have ever met in my life, who makes this look easy (doing music professionally). The only people who would leave a negative review are posers and reverse-shills. Having worked with Frank in nearly every facet, short of being taught how to play drums (I have taught with him though for years), it goes without saying for me, that he is worth every star I just gave him, because that is what he is: a star and a sun. If you don't believe that as well, it is because you reside in the shadows, where you belong. A bright star casts a dark shadow, and there you are. Frank has played on many of my songs and has recorded and engineered on more songs than I can count well beyond my meager contribution to music as an art form. You don't need to take my word for it. Try him yourself, and then one will not be speaking from a place of ignorance, in the shadows.
