Prairie Sun Recording Studio

Recording Under The Prairie Sun

Tucked away in scenic Sonoma County, Prairie Sun Recording is a full-service, three-studio professional facility for tracking, mixing, mastering, and a host of peripheral audio services.

Located just fifty miles north of San Francisco, the 12-acre ranch known as ?the Farm? houses two classic Neve tracking rooms, a state-of-the-art mix studio, Eugene Productions? mastering department, and available on-site lodging.

Already renowned for unique acoustic chambers and an enviable collection of vintage analog equipment and instruments, Prairie Sun has embraced the latest and greatest digital technology and developed the perfect balance of analog and digital recording. This balance is evident in the presence of both a Studer 2? analog tape machine and a Pro Tools HD system in all three studios, and in the recent acquisition of the astounding RADAR 24 digital multitrack.

With its full complement of studios and living spaces, Prairie Sun has traditionally been well-suited to housing an artist and his/her project from pre-production all the way to mastering, all at an unprecedented value. However, the boom in digital recording and project studios has brought in a new type of client. Independent artists on a budget can now track basics in one of our live chambers with excellent mics through a Neve console ­ perhaps to 2? tape ­ and then take their Pro Tools sessions home on a firewire drive for overdubs and vocals. Other artists will bring in Pro Tools or other DAW sessions from a project studio to mix on the SSL in Studio A with our collection of vintage outboard gear and an engineer who knows who to make mixes sing. Whatever the situation, Prairie Sun is finding new ways bring world-class recordings to the independent musician on a budget.
