Equipment

Acacia Recording is a full service recording studio dedicated to exceeding your expectations. Located in the rural hills of Mount Airy, Maryland, it is acoustically designed to capture the best possible sound while providing an amazingly flexible environment. The studio features hickory hard wood floors, custom lighting with glass windows and doors that separate a spacious control room, booth and main recording room. All of the rooms are free floating from one another.

Acacia operates on Avid Pro Tools HD systems with Apple Mac Pros. Be prepared to experience two Apple 30-inch Cinema displays and an air conditioning system that controls the climate of each room individually. The technology behind our cat5 Hearback system offers each musician complete mixing control of his or her own personal cue mix. Please feel free to give us a call. We would love to answer your questions and help you plan for your next recording project.
