I was editing a small short that required some VO work from ES. Upon first arriving we were allowed right into the main suite even though we were a few minutes early. The head staff were very adamant on making sure we had everything we needed and that our talent was comfortable (very professional). Our director and their engineer sat down and within a few minutes were on the same page about what we would be needing and what we were going for. Throughout the session the engineer was extremely helpful and professional, and the rest of the staff stayed out of our way. The studio and control room were very comfortable and welcoming (not covered in random wires and open racks of broken equipment like some other studios I have been in). Overall I was very impressed with my crew and my visit to ES and will give them a call in the future when we need additional work done. They were extremely professional, and more importantly efficient--setup time was minimal, and we were out with time to spare. read more

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. read more

I have nothing but great things to say about ES Audio. I had a voice over session scheduled as a freelance engineer. Upon arriving the Owner was very professional and kind. He helped me set up the gear and start the session due to my unfamiliarity with the studio. After everything was set up he made sure my clients were comfortable and needed anything for the session. I had a wonderful experience, the gear was amazing and was in excellent working order. The studio itself had a great feel and me and my clients had a great time working in the atmosphere ES Audio provided. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a studio to work in. read more

ES Audio is the best in audio; services; and client relations. They really run a smooth operation from start to finish. Cameron, the engineer, brings his A-game every time and the owner, Donny, is super helpful! I like how they offer a variety of amenities to you during your session. I also appreciate the fair pricing. During a time when everything music-related is practically closed, I appreciate ES Audio being open and flexible. I can't wait to record there again before the end of the year. Thank you all for a wonderful first-time experience!! A-Plus all the way! read more

ES Audio is PURE TOP SHELF! I've been going to studios for many, many years & this whole team (Donny, Junior, Cameron AND interns) are phenomenal in so many ways.

Please check out the website for a list of current clients as well as a list of gear. These guys are pro and know thier stuff. A great sounding "A" room with vintage gear and a great "VIBE" for getting your project done. They have 5 rooms in the facility, plus a remote "Get Away" location in the mountains of central Oregon for those who want to get away to write and be creative. Great deal on the rates and the engineers are all awesome. It's great to get back to recording real music in a real studio! Thanks! read more

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. read more

I absolutely loved recording at ES Audio Recording Studios! It was my first time going to any recording studio, but I could tell that they are top notch. Everyone is so friendly there and they truly make you feel like you are at home. In addition, I am obsessed with their vibe! The whole studio just oozes a cool vibe, you'll see! And they are also just extremely helpful and talented. They helped my song come out so good! Exactly what I wanted! read more

I had a wonderful experience recording at ES Audio! Donny Baker was so kind and helpful, and Uriel Soto, Jr. did an amazing job engineering as well. The studio is very comfortable and clean- and is decorated with many impressive music mementos, which gives it a unique and welcoming atmosphere. They provide outstanding equipment and excellent customer service. The quality of sound on my recording is the best! I highly recommend this studio. read more

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. read more

I loved this studio since the first minutes spent here. 1. Easy and clear booking process. 2. Very friendly studio associates. Shout out to Donny. 3. Incredibly maintained and clean premises. 4. Top-level gear, such as Sony C800g mic, SSL 4K preamp, eq, comp, outboard gear (LA-2A, 1176, Distressor, etc). 5. Really affordable price. I definitely recommend ES Audio Recording Studios. read more

ES Audio is amazing. I've been going there for years now, and it's a very welcoming environment. I love using studio A for my drum recording and vocal recording. I bring all my high profile clients in there for the great sound and amazing atmosphere.

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! read more

I tracked drums at ES recently and had the best experience. Donny welcomed us in and helped set up in no time. He was fast, knowledgeable and personable.

I have worked here many times and they have always been great.... The studio has a vibe, not to mention the great sound. Donny Baker, the owner, is always funny, friendly and offers professional service. I definitely recommend this studio for tracking live bands, and I am sure they can offer great service for hip hop/not live tracking. read more

I have had nothing but good experiences so far working with this studio. My instrument is highly unique (handbells) and has a number of challenges for recording. ES Audio has been able to easily accommodate everything for my instrument and make recording my first album as smooth a process as I could have wished for. Thanks so much!! read more

I was on holiday in LA for 2 weeks and had to finish mixing a project - spoke with Donny and he was very welcoming and walked me through which room would be most appropriate. I then decided to go and couldn't recommend it enough! Will definitely be going back next time in in LA! read more

I came into ES audio as a producer and brought in a quick demo session to see about the staff working with recording a band live. NOT only was the staff fun and professional. The group in a 4 hour block of time got a quality demo done with 4 songs in high quality recording. read more
