| Retreat Records is a new recording studio specializing in audio tracking and mixing to digital format. We are equipped with the latest high-end Pro tools HD system, as well as a variety of quality microphones and gear. The studio is an 800 square foot space with a large live room, vocal booth, control room, and lounge area. Located in the rolling hills of the Livermore/Pleasanton valley, our surrounding environment is sure to provide you with the stress free, creative inspiration you need when recording your material. Whether you're a band needing to track your songs, or an individual voice-over artist, we can cater to your needs.
Retreat Records is owned and maintained by Andrew Soulé. Andrew has been a musician and sound engineer for many years and knows the difficulty of finding inexpensive studios that produce quality sounding recordings. "From playing in bands to meeting bands doing live sound and recording, I've realized most everyday artists never take the time to record quality tracks because of the cost" -Andrew. He decided to build his own professional studio at his home. Due to the fact that there is virtually no extra rent and overhead costs are so low, great rates are available for you. Retreat Record's rates are guaranteed to be at least 50% cheaper than most professional recording studios, while still giving you the best sounding, quality recordings.
