ES Audio Services

It was my first time in the recording studio and Donny & Jesse made me feel as if I was superstar. They help me create a jingle for my children’s book which I’m sure will be a hit! I highly recommend this team and service… I could go on and why but I would sound like a paid commercial! Next project. I’m definitely using this team/​studio again!

Great studio
Professional, personable and quick!
Jesse did a great job in a short time period.
Cheers guys

ESA is a very well kept studio with a wide selection of gear/​plugins. Donny knows his stuff and believes in delivering the best quality possible, both in service and audio. Want to record vocals in the live room? No problem. Want to record them in a booth? You got it. ESA allows you to record the way that’s most comfortable for you, and ensures you get killer quality while doing it. If you’re looking to record anything from a voice over to an album, I suggest it.

Great place to work, the staff is friendly and knolegeable
Professional and good!
They cleaned up my audio and it sounds better than I ever thought.

One of the greatest smaller studios I have used. Super friendly, professional and always clean. It’s not Capitol, East West or Ocean Way, but it’s not even close to price of those studios either. It’s NOT a home studio. It’s a real commercial facility with main studio a some production suites. What you get is a good selection af mic pres /​eq — UA, Neve, API and more. In studio A you have the main room, and two iso booths. Everytime I have had a session there all equipment has been As of now the main studio has a Digidesign/​Avid Control 24 running a ProTools rig and they have a professional multi channel headphone monitoring system, where the artist can make individual headphone mixes.
I stumbled upon ES after using facilities, where there had always been something not working. HAve never had that experience at ES. It’s been — and is rock solid.

ES Audio is an amazing place to work. The vibe created by the engineers and the aroma of the candles paired with the red wood, tape machine, comfortable couches, dim lighting (which can be changed if more lighting is necessary), clean restroom, and the array of necessities available provides an environment that helps a musician get work done but does not hinder creativity in the slightest.

First of all, I’d like to thank Donny (owner) and Jesse (engineer) for doing such an amazing job with my 7 year old daughter’s first recording experience ever! These guys are running a first class operation! Everything about this studio creates a comfortable, creative working environment, which completely caters to enhance the level of the performance.
I am a firm believer in good people and good business! These guys fit the bill. I highly recommend them!!!
Thanks again!!!

Everything about this place is 5 Star! The staff, the gear, the studios, everything!
There’s always GOOD coffee, snacks and whatever. The gear in studio A is fantastic, and pretty much everything else should be considered nothing less than stellar! They have 2 Top quality, vintage Neve 1081’s great mics, an Avalon, 1 UA 1176 a comfy couch and cool producers of all kinds of music. I’ve heard dance, pop AND country in there… If you’re looking for a quality team of professionals, it doesn’t get any better than ES Audio Services. Especially for the price! Call em, you’ll be glad you did!

I haved used ES Audio several times for writing sessions and have had such a great time, every time. It’s a state of the art recording studio, but unlike many still feels very homey and comfortable. Easy parking which I love, and really nice people working there. On most of my visits we’ve had our own engineers, and had no problems w/​gear, questions (if any) have been addressed promptly.
What sparked me to write this review is that recently I recorded drums for a song on my upcoming album, and they sound INSANE!
Josh the engineer (from ESA), did a really smashing job, and Donny (The owner) came in and made sure everything was perfect… he had several tricks up his sleeve that really helped, it was fun to watch. I rarely do reviews, but they really made me feel like a superstar that day, and I walked out of there with a GREAT drum track. I’m a happy happy girl, and I’ll definitely be back.

I have had several wonderful sessions with the people at ES Audio, I would without a doubt recommend their services and hope to be able to use them in the near future. Thank you for all your attention to detail creating a wonderful finished product. Nice, friendly staff, clean facilities, professional service. THANK YOU!!!

This place gets 1 star because Unilocal won’t let me give it 0. If I could, I would give it –10. The level of dissatisfaction that I have with this place is going to be difficult to put into words. Upon arrival, none of the outboard gear was working. We plugged our instruments into the preamps and they continued to short out, thus obviously producing a shit signal. The patch bays weren’t operating correctly. The whole system crashed, TWICE in one day for almost 2 hours. Then the following day another crash for 45 minutes, costing us almost 3 hours of our studio time, which they never offered to reimburse us for. WE had to pay for THEIR faulty gear. When we got back to our home studio and imported the sessions, at least 4 tracks (key, fundamental drum tracks) had weak, unusable waveforms, undoubtedly caused by their shorting gear. On top of ALL of this, the owner was an arrogant asshole! DO NOT DO BUSINESS HERE! In the end we payed for shitty quality drum tracks, 3 hours of time that we never got to use, and pompous attitude.
