"Avast Recording Co. isn’t just a staple of the local scene—they’ve also recorded some of the most important alternative rock of the past 20 years."
- Converse Music
For over thirty years, Avast! has been working with artists and producers to make memorable records. We've worked to provide a comfortable and professional space for you to create your music. Studio A features a grand piano, large floor, and a vintage Trident A-Range console for analog tracking. Studio B is an 'as found' 1970's recording studio plus a newer spacious control room that's inspiring and well equipped. Going beyond our dedication to tape decks and analog audio, we've equipped both recording rooms with Burl Audio converters - gorgeous sound for every track of your music. A kitchen and espresso room make an inviting center to the building. Look around for a preview of Avast!
Studio A
STUDIO A
Avast Studio A is the tracking room here. The spacious room suits rock production, big bands, large acoustic ensembles, solos, piano combos, classical, choirs, drum tracking, anything that a traditional large recording studio is for! The Yamaha C7 Grand and this room have been a destination for many years. The piano is voiced softer and plays lighter than other C7's; the room supports it along with a band very well.
Live Room
Studio A offers a large floor area, plus two recording booths and a couple of other places for amplifiers and etc. The room has a noticeable ambience that's very attractive for drums, horns, vocals, etc. Headphone mixes are well thought out, either mixed from the control room, or by the artist via a 5-pod Aviom system that allows individual mixes and volume control.
Control Room
The control room features a beautiful and historic Trident A-Range console. "13 were made, plus a few small ones for the Vatican", as legend goes. We are lucky enough to have #3 here in Seattle. Low frequencies down to the earth, high frequencies to heaven, the mic preamps and equalizers built into this 1975 gem are a revelation. The console is 36 channels, and has been rebuilt from the frame up to be fully working and dependable. Thanks Jay! Recording to tape, or recording to Protools, plenty of classic outboard gear and a full array of microphones make your project more than you had imagined.

Studio B
STUDIO B
Avast Studio B is an actual 1970's recording studio. It's almost a time capsule of mirrors, wood, and orange burlap. The sound quality is fairly dry but not dead, very warm and clear. This studio is ideal for overdubs, full-band tracking, editing, and mixing. The piano is a Yamaha U3; or a 1940's Wurlitzer 'Deco' piano, in tune and full of character (for grand piano, look at our Studio A). The room also has a Wurlitzer 200A electric piano, and access to Ampeg Fliptop and SVT amps, Fender '68 Twin, and other instruments. There are three booths, two with windows and one amp-closet, as well as the main wood-floored room. The room has a great feel, the floor is sprung slightly, like an old ballroom.
Control Room
Avast's mixing console is an API Legacy 64 input console, with Flying Faders automation; it's a beautiful piece, with two angled wings to house the high-numbered channels. You can work 100% analog here, or use the 64-output Protools rig. We feature Burl Audio's gorgeous converters to make Protools sound amazing. We are well-known for our collection of vintage outboard gear, and since the sprawling patch bay is well laid out, you'll find lots of great sounds at hand. Ampex ATR102 Stereo Mix tape deck and MM1200 16-track analog multitrack can be used, or roll in the Studer A827 Gold Edition for your session.
Live Room
Studio B is awaiting it's finishing touches on a long-awaited remodel. We rebuilt the control room into a great sounding, great looking workspace. Formerly cramped but adequate, it's now a sprawling huge room with daylight and treetop views. The proportions of the room fall into ideal dimensions, aka we lucked out with the acoustics. The monitoring environment is much improved - the couch is well within the sweet-spot and has no low-end build-up, so everyone is hearing the same mix as you work. It's now easy to hear low end and subtle mix details. The room usually has Genelec 1032A speakers, plus Yamaha NS10's and JBL 4430 Mains. On request, Tannoy Little Gold 12's or ProAc Studio 100 speakers can be used as well.

There are three booths, two with windows and one amp-closet, as well as the main wood-floored room. The room has a great feel, the floor is sprung slightly, like an old ballroom.
Control Room
Avast's mixing console is an API Legacy 64 input console, with Flying Faders automation; it's a beautiful piece, with two angled wings to house the high-numbered channels. You can work 100% analog here, or use the 64-output Protools rig. We feature Burl Audio's gorgeous converters to make Protools sound amazing. We are well-known for our collection of vintage outboard gear, and since the sprawling patch bay is well laid out, you'll find lots of great sounds at hand. Ampex ATR102 Stereo Mix tape deck and MM1200 16-track analog multitrack can be used, or roll in the Studer A827 Gold Edition for your session.
Live Room
Studio B is awaiting it's finishing touches on a long-awaited remodel. We rebuilt the control room into a great sounding, great looking workspace. Formerly cramped but adequate, it's now a sprawling huge room with daylight and treetop views. The proportions of the room fall into ideal dimensions, aka we lucked out with the acoustics. The monitoring environment is much improved - the couch is well within the sweet-spot and has no low-end build-up, so everyone is hearing the same mix as you work. It's now easy to hear low end and subtle mix details. The room usually has Genelec 1032A speakers, plus Yamaha NS10's and JBL 4430 Mains. On request, Tannoy Little Gold 12's or ProAc Studio 100 speakers can be used as well.
Avast Studio B is an actual 1970's recording studio. It's almost a time capsule of mirrors, wood, and orange burlap. The sound quality is fairly dry but not dead, very warm and clear. This studio is ideal for overdubs, full-band tracking, editing, and mixing. The piano is a Yamaha U3; or a 1940's Wurlitzer 'Deco' piano, in tune and full of character (for grand piano, look at our Studio A). The room also has a Wurlitzer 200A electric piano, and access to Ampeg Fliptop and SVT amps, Fender '68 Twin, and other instruments. There are three booths, two with windows and one amp-closet, as well as the main wood-floored room. The room has a great feel, the floor is sprung slightly, like an old ballroom.
