2200 Studios Opens in Bay Area, Unveils Studio A

2200 Studios, which opened its Bay Area doors in early 2025, has unveiled Studio A, "the facility’s flagship room, which features a Solid State Logic ORIGIN 32-channel analogue in-line mixing console. The multi-room complex originally opened in 1972 as the Record Plant Sausalito, later operating as The Plant then Plant Studios, and recently relaunched following a comprehensive modernization after lying vacant for a period."

I'm an SSL guy. I’ve always loved them and the SSL workflow. The ORIGIN made a lot of sense to me because it incorporates the best of SSL up to this point," says producer Damien Lewis.

Lewis continues, “Having that flexibility in a console enables producers to do their jobs better. It keeps them focused on creativity and really allows them to express their sound. We have a rack full of other mic pre’s, but they both went straight to the SSL pre’s and got amazing sounds in five minutes. So we've been nothing but thrilled by our new ORIGIN.”
