THE DUST BOWL

 

Unlike most record labels, Dusty Records provides in-house recording services. The ever-expanding Dust Bowl boasts capabilities equal to, or exceeding, those of many commercial recording studios.

With a strategic combination of digital and analog equipment, The Dust Bowl offers up to 24 simultaneous channels of high-resolution audio recording, and all of the editing and mixing power provided by today's finest digital audio workstation software.
