The Blue Studio is the birthplace of all of Blue’s audio creations. A fully-functioning recording environment, the Blue Studio is used to perfect the sonic signatures of all of Blue’s new products, as well as to host artists on a daily basis. Artists frequent the studio to demo Blue gear, as well as record tracks that are eventually mastered and released as part of their albums.
