416 WABASH:
INDIANAPOLIS’ BEST RECORDING STUDIO
STUDIO
CONTROL ROOM
Our control room was custom designed by Haverstick Designs. The room encompasses a 24x4x2 Channel SSL XL Desk console. Featuring an artistic blend of form and function, acoustic treatments include a soft wall absorption concept with a natural wood slat layout sandwiched between hardwood floors and custom acoustic clouds. This combination of treatments provides a full-frequency response that grants the listener a consistent and balanced aural experience.
ISO BOOTH
Our iso booth features a ledge stone wall layout accented by floor-to-ceiling soft wall panels and bass traps. A unique cloud design of natural wood slats allows for a wide range of room characteristics allowing engineers and artists alike to obtain any desired sonic result.
LIVE ROOM
Our most unique characteristic at 416 Wabash is our approx. 7,000 sq. ft. live space. This large expanse provides both hard surfaces and varying angles that result in a pleasing and natural reverberant sound. Multiple floors and 25' ceilings accommodate a large range of project styles and concepts.

Don’t take our word for it. Here’s what our guests are saying…

Chris and Mitch are the most professional guys in the city of Indy. I always get people that want to know who I’m booking my studio time with and I’ve slowly seen them grow bigger! It’s much harder for me to book immediate studio time now lol. All-in-all I’m happy to continue to give them my business because they do a great job all around.

The best studio I've ever visited. Mitch is a monster when it comes to engineering! We recorded 6 songs in ONE 4 hour session because of how efficient he is, and his ear for music is crazy! 10/10 across the board.

This is an incredible place. Converted club with 30 foot ceilings. It’s beautiful in a very cool way. I’ve been working with this business for over 10 years. For recording it’s top-notch. Their engineer Mitch, knows his board like he built it himself, has an excellent ear and is very imaginative. He has a lot of patience with many engineers lack and is cool to just hang out with. Their rates are very competitive and it’s always a great experience. You can book online and they’re extremely organized.
