At F Studios we use an assortment of gear to help our clients get the best possible recordings, mixes, and masters.
At the heart of the 1800sqft home based studio, we use a 130 track HD recorder, coupled with a 44 channel digital mixing console. It comes complete with a 20 bus system, dynamics processing on every channel, 4 band fully parametric eq on every channel, editing features, and two stereo effects processors. It also comes equipped with 8 AUX sends that we use for a variety of things, including running signal to 8 other outboard processors running in real time with the automix capabilities of our system.
We use an assortment of processors for effects, mic modeling (when asked for), mastering purposes, and vocal/instrument editing. Outboard gear currently consists of:
· TASCAM
· TC Helicon
· Antares
· Lexicon
· Aphex
· Peavey
· Yamaha
With our set up, we can run the gambit from very basic recordings and mixes, to ultra complex, intricate, and grandiose.
With the advancements of digital recording and mixing technology, a lot of great plug ins have been designed to emulate the sound of analog for those who prefer such quality. But, regardless of grade of plug in used, nothing compares to real analog equipment. That’s why we offer analog summing for our clients who desire such quality during the mastering phase. We offer both TASCAM and SONY analog recording systems to capture the signal in a summing/mixdown track and prepare for proper mastering.
When it comes to capturing sound, we have the tools to get the job done. We carry an assortment of mics to choose from, depending on your desires. Pencil and large diaphragm condensers, ribbon mics, cardioids dynamics, all from top names in the industry.

At F Studios, you are working with the best in the Pacific Northwest. We say we are the Best, and we mean we are the Best. We make certain that the music that you create at the studio remains true to you, and comes out sounding like you and only you. We don’t do midi replacement unless specifically asked to do so by the client. We don’t do extensive auto-tuning, unless asked. We prefer to work with our clients to get the best sound and performance from them, right from the start. That way, when we mix and master your work, it is your gear, your sound, your performance. All things, which no one else will be able to duplicate. This way, your record, coming out of F Studios, is YOUR BRAND. It’s what identifies you out of the plethora of other music out there. At F Studios, that is what we do. We work with our clients to help set them apart from the rest, so that they may be more easily recognizable and stand out from other in their genre. Our results speak for themselves!
If you have a new project you want to get started on, big or small; or perhaps you have already started on one but still need to find a great mixing and mastering house, get in touch with F Studios! We’ll help you get ahead above the rest, because this is what we do. And we are the BEST at what we do!
