Studio A features an open 750 sq. ft. live room with a 14 ft. ceiling, skylights and windows looking onto green pasture where sheep, goats and alpaca graze.  There are 5 ISO booths all wired with ample XLR, Cat6, Instrument and Speaker pass-throughs as well as Leslie pass- throughs.

Designed by The Wes Lachot Design Group (Chapel Hill, NC), the control room features an automated 72 channel Neve VR console, which came from Capitol Studio C (LA) by way of Electric Lady Studios (NYC). Studios A and B are interconnected via tie lines and a LAN network, and share a backline and mic locker depending on availability.
