Mothball Studios is a full-service, professionally treated, hybrid analog-digital recording studio located in the Echo Park neighborhood of Los Angeles. Designed and built by a film art director with lots of acoustic design experience, the rooms not only sound great but feature a uniquely whimsical aesthetic that's a whole lot of fun to work in. We've got a very furry console room, a very colorful live tracking room and a very closet-y amp closet. All the rooms are fully connected with a premium quality cable snake/breakout box, screens with a 2-way video feed, and patch bays set up to streamline the routing to and from all hardware. And there's some seriously awesome gear to play with (see gear list below). We're capable of tracking anything from solo singer-songwriters to live bands to podcasts, and are open to our guests filming video content as well. (Note that for larger, fully-crewed film shoots, rates may vary depending on needs and logistics.) You can bring your own laptop or just bring a harddrive and hook up to ours: an Macbook Pro M1 Max with 64 GB RAM, loaded with Pro Tools, Ableton, Logic and tons of premium plugins. We've got ~80% of UAD plugins too, which you can load up to your heart's content on our 20-DSP chip Apollo system, without using up any RAM. If you'd like to hire an engineer for tracking/mixing sessions, that can be added on for $40/hr.
