[We’re proud of our history]

We've been a fixture of professional audio for over Five decades.

Studio West has served the music, film, and television industries since 1971. In that time, we’ve worked with everyone from local bands to A-list stars. Whether recording a single vocal or an entire orchestra, an audiobook, or a rock band, we’ve done it all. With four fully equipped studios and a team of experienced engineers and producers, we’ve got what it takes to get your projects over the finish line.

[Practical education]

WE’LL START YOUR AUDIO CAREER ON THE RIGHT TRAC.

At The Recording Arts Center (TRAC) we cultivate working talent. From start to finish, our educational programs are focused on real-world results. At TRAC you’ll get hands-on experience in our studios and one-of-a-kind instruction from a team of industry pros at the top of their game. Our instructors are working professionals and our class sizes are small, meaning our graduates enter the industry with solid skills and real-life experience.

The Recording Arts Center’s location within a real, working studio is one of our main advantages.
