DIGITAL & ANALOG RECORDING IMMERSED IN VINTAGE STYLE & TECHNIQUE

Opal Recording is a unique, private, multi-room, isolated, acoustically-treated, recording facility in Palm Coast, FL where songwriters & bands can record pristine tracks at an affordable rate. The studio also features rarely-seen, retro gear including (but not limited to) multitrack analog tape machines, 1960’s microphones, vintage amps and instruments. I offer a variety of sonic services such as studio recording, mobile recording, mixing, podcasting, livestreams, guitar lessons & audio production workshops. Let's make some music.
