About Us

MIXART STUDIOS, ONE OF CANADA'S PREMIER SSL RECORDING FACILITIES HAS BEEN THE LOCATION OF CHOICE FOR A NUMBER OF TOP CANADIAN AND US ARTISTS FOR YEARS.

THE STUDIO

With an easy vibe, rich live sound and a first-class collection of vintage and bleeding-edge digital equipment, MIXART provides a fantastic creative environment for professional recording and mixing.

HISTORY

Mixart began in 2001 with a mission of providing a relaxed “boutique” atmosphere and an affordable alternative to corporate clock-watching studios. Managed, owned and operated by industry pros with a unique combination of music composition, arrangement, performance, production and engineering skills, Mixart provides an inspiring and results-oriented work environment, in one of the county’s best equipped studios.
