Austin, TX (February 24, 2014)—Orb Recording Studios in Austin will host its grand opening on Sunday, March 16, 2014, hosted by co-owners C.B. Hudson and Matt Noveskey (lead guitarist and bassist, respectively, for Blue October).
Located at 9306 Ledgestone Terrace in Austin, TX, Orb Recording Studios offers convertible spaces capable of accommodating a number of players from a solo artist to an orchestra.

Studio B is a 204-square-foot live space with a 255-square-foot control room and an “Amp Wall.” Other amenities include an extensive instrument library and collection of premium new and vintage microphones, a 876-square-foot lounge/kitchenette with two couches, 50-inch LED TV, DirecTV, microwave, espresso machine, fridge, WiFi, pool table, bumper pool table, a Playstation 3, Ms. Pac-Man/Galaga and Arcade Legends 3 with Golden Tee golf arcade games.
“We want to bring a comfortable and stress-free recording environment to Texas,” said Hudson. “After recording in New York and Los Angeles, we realized that Austin deserved the same type of state-of-the-art-facility, but with a Texas Hill Country vibe. Built by musicians for musicians, we combined all of our favorite attributes from studios around the country and brought them to Orb.”
Acoustic Spaces owner and chief designer Mark Genfan designed the studio’s acoustics, and wiring and audio electronics were installed by Brad Engleking, owner and designer of Metric Audio. The core team is rounded out by Orb Recording Studios house engineer Kevin Butler who has produced, engineered and composed music for albums, TV, film, Web and other uses for clients including GM, Disney and Google, and has worked with more than 100 bands and recording artists.
