    Why Downtown LA artists choose LV

    DTLA is the creative center of Los Angeles right now — and most of the studios here are either booked out by major labels or charging $150+/hr. LV Recording Studio gives Downtown artists a pro-grade room at a working-artist rate, two blocks from the Arts District galleries and a short ride from Little Tokyo, the Financial District, and USC.

    Inside the studio

    Acoustically treated vocal booth with a Neumann U87 or TLM 103, an Avalon VT-737sp tube preamp, Universal Audio Apollo x8 conversion, and Pro Tools HD on a fast Mac. The control room has a comfortable lounge, LED ambiance, and a star ceiling. Bring your laptop or work off our session — either way you leave with raw files and a rough mix.
