The studio was designed by John Arthur of the John Arthur Design Group and features custom bass trapping, absorption and diffusion treatments as well as a mixture of RPG diffusion treatments. The monitors and room design provide a very accurate sonic environment for mastering.

At the Kitchen we understand that mastering is not intended to be a sonic stamp but rather a process tailored to the unique needs of each recording. This philosophy extends to our equipment choices as well.

The signal chain employed at the Kitchen features a broad spectrum of analog and digital tools and has been selected over years of testing, experience and research to provide a comprehensive toolset and impeccable sonics.
