Karian Studios Debuts World-Class Recording Facility

Karian Studios Debuts World-Class Recording Facility 'Song-Making in Style' Comes to Nashville NASHVILLE, Jan. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Let it Be ... Luxury -- nothing but the finest amenities and recording equipment -- from state-of-the-art to rare vintage -- grace the stunning 10,000 square foot estate that is America's newest premier recording venue, Karian Studios, wowing the industry this month with the debut of their world-class facility. Karian Studios invites artists from all music genres and their producers, writers and engineers to delight in decadence while they record and master their projects at this posh gated Mediterranean mansion just twenty miles from Nashville's famous Music Row. Think of Karian Studios as the Four Seasons Hotel meets the finest recording equipment on earth ... a spacious haven where architecture and advanced technology combine to make beautiful music a joy to produce. Everything from the 20 foot ceilings to the three-tier custom control room with the Brazilian walnut hardwood floors were designed with one concept in mind -- sound perfection and visual delight. More than just enviably equipped and drop dead gorgeous, Karian Studios also offers five star living accommodations for its guests. The entire second floor has custom designed quarters including a private suite/lounge, conference room, gourmet kitchen, laundry room, full bath and dining nook. There is also a private suite on the third floor, along with the mastering facility. No expense was spared when this Mansion of Music was built from the ground up by the owners, Ian and Karen D'Souza. Ian's background includes being a former Head of A&R, in-house Songwriter & Producer for BMG. Ian is a Gold & Platinum Producer and serves as the Chief Engineer/Producer & Managing Director for Karian Studios. Karen, whose background includes Multi-Platinum Artist Management and International Music Licensing for artists and labels in over 65 countries, serves as the General Manager. Christopher Huston, who designed the studio, is a Grammy, Gold and Platinum award winning Producer, Studio Designer and Engineer who has worked with the best in the business -- The Who, War, Led Zeppelin, The Drifters, Ben E. King -- for nearly four decades. Ian and Karen have given Karian Studios the space and audio capabilities most studios can only dream of: An 800 square foot control room with 176 available tracks, a 1,000 square foot Live Room with five additional isolation rooms, cutting edge post-production, a private writing room, a 600 square foot mastering facility (opening Spring 2005), 160+ pieces of equipment, to include an SSL 4072E/G+with TR, Genelec 1036 mains and DynAudio M2's ... if it's sound related, Karian's got it covered. Inside and out, Karian Studios is an experience that inspires artists to create the best, all the while balancing business with pleasure. In between sessions, guests can lounge in the French courtyard, enjoy a private masseuse, lunch by the pond, ride horses, dine in the gourmet kitchen or have a meal catered ... or even take a jaunt on the Karian private jet. Engineers and artists alike cannot afford to miss out on the beauty and technical triumph that is Karian Studios ... where a superstar can record "at home" and a new artist can nab their number one ...
