The Flashpoint Story |
In 1989, Bennet Spielvogel, also known as the East Side Flash, built Flashpoint Recording Studio in a turn of the century brick and stone building located deep in the heart of downtown Austin Texas. The rooms within Flashpoint are soundproofed with double layers of sound insulation board and double layers of five eighth inch sheetrock. The sturdy walls are built on two by six plates with staggered studs and stuffed with rock wool. Staggered studs decouple the sound transmission source and provide excellent room to room isolation. |
The studio design incorporates sound isolation with eye contact, a hallmark feature of great studios. This means we can track large bands whose members can record together, yet maintain eye contact and keep their amps and instruments from bleeding onto the recording. The studio is a perfect environment for anyone who wishes to create and develop their music. We provide real rooms that sound wonderful, including a reverb hallway designed to get fat, full electric guitar sounds. |
