Overview
Opus 4 Studios is an American audio recording studio and video production facility located on five landscaped acres in Bothell, Washington. It presents itself as a combined world-class audio recording studio and complete video production house, offering analog and digital audio recording, mixing and mastering alongside video shooting, lighting, editing, post-production and sound design — all within a single facility. The studio is owned and presided over by Dr. Michael Matesky (D.M.A., Music), who is also an active cellist associated with the studio's musical output. On the audio side, Opus 4 Studios records to either Ampex analog tape or a Pro Tools|HD3 Accel 9.0.5 digital audio workstation. Its equipment roster includes Manley, Millennia Media, Neumann, AEA, RCA, Schoeps and AKG gear, complemented by more than 185 digital software plug-ins. The studio markets itself as suitable for a wide range of projects — orchestral recording, voiceover, radio advertising, album tracking and college arts supplements — and offers additional musical services such as complex editing, full arranging, jingle writing and professional musician contracting. On the video side, Opus 4 Studios operates as a fully equipped digital video production facility, capable of shooting on location or inside its own studio space, which measures approximately 37.5 feet long by 19 feet wide by 17.5 feet high. The combination of audio and video capabilities under one roof is central to the studio's positioning as a one-stop production resource. The business is a private, independent operation rather than part of a larger media group, and its public presence centers on its own website, which organizes information around equipment, facilities, setting, comments, music and pictures, and rates. Its scale and clientele are regional, serving the Seattle-area and Pacific Northwest creative market as well as clients seeking a dedicated recording and production environment.
