The Saltmine Studio Oasis is the #1 Arizona professional recording studio for many reasons. The first thing that separates this studio from anything else in the valley is the high quality gear that is available. Everyone knows that if you want top-notch results, you need top-of-the-line gear. Everything from the SSL to the Neve consoles, to over 200 microphones and the musical equipment available to musicians is just incredible - drums, guitars, keyboards, amps, etc.. I mean these guys are here to make every bands' and artists' dreams come true and you don't even need to have your own gear! The second thing I love about this studio is the people. Don Salter and the team are exceptional at what they do. The service is fast and friendly and they just keep going until you get exactly what you came to get from them. These guys are the real thing and they're not just going to give you a tour and send you packing. They will take care of all of your audio needs from tracking, to mixing, and through the final stages of mastering your material. You can even get to work with producers like Swizz Beatz! Finally, the entire vibe and general aura of the studio is classic and independent. As soon as you walk in there it's like a wall of creativity hits you and the only thing that's on your mind is create.. record.. create.. record. I felt like I could've lived there if I was recording an album and you definitely can. The Saltmine Studio Oasis is the only professional studio that has luxurious accommodations for extended stays. These on-site accommodations include a 1300 sq. ft Luxury Patio Home just 50 ft from the studio entrance and the Residential Villa that includes a studio room, a master bedroom, HD Satellite TV's, master bathroom, and a fully equipped kitchen so you don't even have to leave the premises! I'm telling you this place is legit and is the only place to record in Arizona. Check them out at thesaltmine.com!
