Great place for band rehersal with reasonable rates and a relaxed vibe. We did a live recording they were super helpful and flexible with set-up, eliminating noise, balancing the mix and editing.
We are regulars and satisfied customers. Every 2 weeks we rehearse there and everything works & is a good environment for practicing our music🎸🎶🎸
Good facility - mixer, back line, monitors. Reliable sound and Hunter is very knowledgeable if any help is needed.
Clean, equipment is in great shape, air conditioned, plenty of parking, staff is around to help out if needed. It is a little pricey, but you get what you pay for - a top notch rehearsal space.
This studio is always clean, great AC, they have great gear, always fun to practice at this studio, plus the dudes running the place are cool!
Recess is great! Super responsive and a solid on-site person. The air conditioning CRANKS!

Hunter is an awesome dude and engineer. This is the only place I would considerer doing a band practice in Orange County. Gear is in good working condition, rooms sound / smell good!!! Air conditioning works. The rooms are acoustically treated so it's easy to hear yourself.
Great rehearsal spot rooms are spacious and the equipment is solid, one of the better rehearsal studios I’ve been to
We’ve been using Recess Studios for several months and have had nothing but great service. The rooms are well-appointed and always clean and ready to go at the reserved time. Thanks to David and Hunter for all you provide.
This place is so Rad :)
