NRG Recording Studios is a recording facility located in North Hollywood, California, that was created by producer and mixer Jay Baumgardner in 1992.^[1]

Facilities[]

The facility consists of three studio consoles:

• Studio A console: custom vintage Neve 8068 built by Pat Schneider
• Studio B console: custom vintage Neve 8078
• Studio C console: SSL 9000J

SAN at NRG[]

Chief Engineer Wade Norton and Owner Jay Baumgardner worked with Paul Levy of Advanced Audio Rentals to incorporate a Fibre Channel storage area network (SAN) into their facility. This allowed for reduced noise inside of the control rooms and provided tighter security to clients by automatically backing up sessions into a secured central location.
