Western Sound Studio

It takes an awesome studio to make awesome podcasts.

So, we’ve built one of the best in the greater LA area. And now, you can get that same top-of-the-line sound for your podcast and audio production.

The Western Sound studio in historic downtown Los Angeles is available for hourly, half-day and day-long rentals.

Each rental includes:

• Business hours: 9:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m.
• Two all-day parking validations at the 213 S. Spring St. garage
• Dedicated engineer
• Sessions run on Therapy Time — they start promptly at the slotted time and end 10 minutes before the hour (e.g. a one-hour session is 50 minutes; a two-hour session is 1:50)
• Please arrive a little early so you don’t miss your start time
• We offer big discounts for independent podcasters, so if you’re an indy, please send an email to studio@western-sound.com for a discount code.
