Warm Audio launches its first recording studio open to the public, Warm Studios

State-of-the-art Austin recording destination,
open to every artist
Warm Audio is proud to announce the arrival of Warm Studios, Austin’s newest recording destination. Warm Studios is a world-class recording facility, second to none. This custom 3,550 sq ft studio was designed by specialized studio builder Alex Otto, of Otto System Works, with expertly constructed and tuned listening and recording rooms, and includes a lounge and lobby area. No expense was spared in the mission of providing a highly functional and aesthetically appealing space for engineers, producers, and artists to bring their work to life.
Warm Studios is an extension of our mission to give musicians access to legendary sound.

The Studios
Warm Studios features two spaces, Studio A and Studio B, both designed around their ATC monitors and SSL AWS948 Delta consoles which provide high quality referencing for an effective and efficient workflow.

Studio A consists of a spacious 702 sq ft control room with a 14’ wide, triple paned window, viewing into a 1,065 sq ft tracking room with a loft and 25’ vaulted ceilings. Additionally, two isolation rooms measuring 148 sq ft and 123 sq ft, respectively, provide flexibility for any recording situation.
