We have state of the art equipment, and a comfortable and great sounding environment. We have three isolation booths and a spacious control and listening room. The rooms have an excellent sound and are comfortably outfitted. The mixing/listening room is large enough to accommodate the whole band and their friends. There is space to rehearse while recording is going on. The studio is situated in a beautiful one-acre landscaped jungle in Omao, Kauai. In the hills just above Koloa, and Poipu Beach (5 minutes to the beach). There is a 1/5 mile trail that winds through the land surrounding the studio. It is abundant with tropical fruit trees and a wide variety of Hawaiian and tropical plants. You are welcome to enjoy the benches placed along the trail and eat the fruits that grow all year long.
