Studio West

Uptown’s Studio West has evolved from a digital recording studio to a full service audio and video production, voiceover, and sound design suite. A large isolation booth as well as a Whisper Room, offer varying degrees of isolation. Studio West includes a Genelec 5.1 surround sound system. This room features ProTools HDX with the latest Avid HD series interfaces, and touch screen multi-touch control over everything. We also have a blend of Class-A vintage and modern era preamps and microphones, providing the flexibility to match the right source with the right signal path. Studio West rivals the best Audio & Video Post Production rooms in the city.
