Clear Lake Recording Studios has been a staple of the North Hollywood music scene since 1987. Founder Brian Levi’s vision for Studio A was realised by the legendary acoustician George Augspurger, who designed the live room to make drums and acoustic instruments sound massive, while still accommodating a range of other instruments. The control room is both spacious and acoustically precise, with a Trident 80B console at its heart.
In 1992, Studio B was added to accommodate longer-term projects, followed by Studio C in 2000. These additional spaces allow Clear Lake to offer even more flexibility and creative options to their clients. With over three decades of experience, Clear Lake Recording Studios remains a premier destination for musicians seeking the perfect sound.
Clear Lake Studios was purchased by World Class Engineer Eric Milos, who took over in 2012. With a complete overhaul, Clear Lake now boasts in Studio A a Trident 80B console with a large selection of outboard equipment, Studio B is a Dolby Certified Atmos Studio with a 9.1.4 PMC Dolby Atmos Speaker Configuration perfect for mixing in Immersive and there two other rooms, Studio C and Studio D!
