Natural light, beautiful surroundings, great sounds.
Puzzle Tree studio is serenely positioned on ten acres on an island outside of Seattle, WA. While removed from the city rush, the studio features some of the best equipment available.
The heart of the studio is a Trident Series 80 5.1 surround console, featuring 16 “classic” modules and 16 “hi-def” modules, and a total of 80 inputs at mixdown! Recording takes place via a Pro Tools HD3 system, with 32 D/A and 24 A/D, SYNC I/O, and an Apogee Big Ben master clock. The studio has a host of high-end outboard gear from API, Manley, Empirical Labs, Summit, Smart Research, TC Electronics, with monitoring through a pair of Adam S3As, as well as Yamaha NS-10s. Acoustic treatment for the studio was provided by ASC, and there is a wide selection of vintage instruments and amplifiers to choose from.
