Preserving a historic studio
and advancing the art of live recording through education.
Why This Studio Matters
Because places shape culture.
The former Record Plant is an icon. Historic recording studios are more than rooms with equipment, they are spaces where ideas are exchanged, skills are passed down, and creative communities are formed. When these spaces disappear, something irreplaceable is lost.
Because live recording is a living tradition.
In an era increasingly shaped by digital tools and A.I., live, in-room recording teaches listening, collaboration, and craft. Preserving this tradition ensures artists continue to learn by creating together, not just alone behind screens.
Because access creates opportunity.
2200 Studios provides emerging artists, students, and educators access to a professional recording environment that would otherwise be out of reach. Education turns history into a working resource, not a relic.
Because legacy should have a future.
2200 Music Foundation is committed to keeping this landmark active, relevant, and open to the community, not preserved as a museum, but sustained as a working studio.
