The meadowlark
I started recording like a lot of people. I had a little cassette four-track in my bedroom with my electric guitar and a couple of pedals. That small start became a life-long obsession. I started collecting gear one piece at a time. I learned from trial and error. I harassed every engineer who would let me and asked tons of questions and learned as much as I could. I'm still asking questions. Still learning.
The Meadowlark is my personal studio. And its a long way from its 4-track roots. It's a great space to be creative. From the full-on rock jam to small ensemble live recording. We've done it all here.
