THE RECORDING, MIXING AND
MASTERING STUDIO

The musical studio facilities have been conceived in the heart of a typical old house in Haute Provence, being both a living space and a creativity sanctuary for artists while offering state-of-the-art equipment.

The space provides a control room, three recording rooms with specific acoustics as well as a producer’s room next to a bedroom for artists residencies and intimate recording sessions.

A backline of vintage instruments is also available on demand.

I had an excellent experience with Valentin and the results were beyond my expectations regarding the support, follow-up and seriousness in the production process and release of my long-play vinyl. Highly recommended!

Valentin is a true sound enthusiast. Curious, attentive and precise, it is always a pleasure to talk music with him. His studio in the heart of Sault is a real gem, quality sound equipment, which he masters wonderfully!
