Studio C

The creative heart of Prairie Sun, Studio C hits you the moment you walk through the door. With three distinct acoustic environments, Studio C is spacious and can easily accommodate large ensembles.

Studio C also features the world famous “Waits Room,” where Tom Waits tracked such albums as Bone Machine and Mule Variations. It is virtually untouched since the days of the La Lomita Hatchery.

“The Waits Room” has a distinct sound that has even been featured on Bricasti’s M7 reverb, along with Studio C’s “Prairie Room” and our two original EMT plate reverbs.

Studio C houses our second 80 Series Neve console, a custom 8026 Mark 2, along with a completely restored, early 70's API 1604 console, a Studer A-820 24 track tape machine and a Pro Tools HD 2 System featuring Radar converters.

A completely restored 9' Baldwin SD6 grand piano with an unique, larger than life sound is permanently housed in Studio C.

Tie lines are available to all the other studios on the farm, allowing for extra isolation or for any room to be used as an echo chamber.

Also available to Studio C is our Hammond B3 organ and Rhodes Suitcase 73 electric piano. For more information, or to book Studio C, please call or email us.
