168 hours later Sound Temple Studios FINISHED!!!

It has been quite a journey over the previous 14 months. This has been one of the most challenging and rewarding projects I have ever done. I am so grateful to everyone who has assisted in this project. You can see the results of the control room, live room, the three isolation-booths, the lounge etc. There are also some shots of an impromptu celebration and a visit from Lizz Wright (a new Asheville resident), who graced us with her amazing voice with some Christmas carols. The pictures speak for themselves, so please enjoy. Many blessings

Another 48 hours at Sound Temple Studios

Well the back wall of the control room is nearly done except for the RPG diffusers. The custom equipment credenza (built by a terrific cabinet maker and bass player - Rob Geisler) was installed just a couple of hours ago. The iso-booths should be done tomorrow after we made a small change with the sound panels. The live room is done and the final wiring is well on it's way. Also, the Zero Seals are being added to every door to create a sound seal at every door opening. It;'s very exciting and overwhelming. I am blessed to have such a great crew. Tony Brett and his team and Thom Canova and his team are ROCKING IT as is my trim carpenter Don Thompson and my electrician Bob Hendrickson. Man it's crowded down there.

Namaste from Sound Temple Studios in Asheville N.C.

Sound Temple Studios in Asheville N.C. progress as of 12/12/10 - getting closer!!

Just 2 days later the progress is pretty amazing. Most of the fabric is up on the soffits now. You can see all the panels in the live room and also a view from the control room of the double doors in the 3 iso-booths with sound panels in between. Also note the way every inch of fabric needs to be hand tucked into the soffits and some of the walls. Very time consuming and Brett Acoustics is doing an amazing job. These guys are perfectionists.

Sound Temple Studios 48 hours later 12-10--10

Well in just 48 hours a lot has happened at Sound Temple Studios in Asheville N.C. All the framed acoustic panels are up in the live room and the 705 material, insulation and some of the fabric is up in the soffits (for bass trapping). The acoustic cloud is also up in the live room and we have new colors on the control room window. Gone is the dark brown. Yea!!! I think everyone is going to love the beauty we've put into this studio. THe acoustics are also amazing. This is a recording studio musicians will feel so peaceful and inspired in. I can't wait to share my lifelong dream and make some inspiring music in this studio.

Blessings to all

Here; comes the final acoustic treatments for Sound Temple Studios

Well the final push to complete the Sound Temple Studios in Asheville N.C. is well underway. Two truck loads of acoustics have arrived! Everything is on schedule to be complete Dec 21st after a delay with the acoustical panels. The good news is all those acoustical panels are here! Brett Acoustics has bee putting up the track for the 705 acoustical material and putting in insulation for the soffit base trapping. The control room window is being built as I type as well. Since my last post, all the doors and most of the glass has been installed and lots of trim. The musicians lounge and artists suite is also complete. The Yamaha C-6 Grand Piano was also delivered last week and is getting used to it's new home in the "Piano Booth". The wiring crew arrives this sunday to start the final wiring and then the final pics and room tuning is scheduled with Wes Lachot (the amazing designer) on Dec 21st. More soon. I'm so thankful to see this final stage here at last!
