    If you're looking for the best sound engineer/editor/audio recording studio in Austin, you found it. Joel Block is simply the best.

    East Austin

    12th Street Sound in my opinion is the best recording studio in Austin. Top quality gear (the only…read moreSSL 9000 in town) all the premium mics, pres, outboard gear, and great instruments (I'm a keyboard player) Hammond B-3 with Leslie, Wurly electric, grand piano, plus great guitar amps, amps, etc. The building itself was an old Baptist church, and 12th Street hired famed studio designers The Wes Lachot Design Group (www.weslachot.com is worth a look as well) to design the space from the ground up. It really is a very cool space. Kevin Szymanski is the house engineer and has worked with lots of famous bands you know-from Foo Fighters, to Matchbox 20, to John Hiatt, to Queens of the Stone Age to Faith Hill. If you are recording in Austin, you need to check this place out. If you are not recording in Austin, you should re-think those plans and come to Austin to record. It's a cool music town, and 12th Street Sound also just happens to be about one mile from Franklin's BBQ, which Bon Appetit calls the best BBQ joint in the U.S.

    Besides being one of the coolest looking recording studios (created from an old Baptist church),…read more12th Street Sound really knows their stuff. The equipment is outstanding, the engineer and owner are amazing, and everything they produce is high-quality. This is a huge step up from many of the old-school recording studios in Austin, and it has everything an artist would need to produce something incredible.
