A story of how wonderful and special Kaleidoscope Sound is:I recorded 4 songs in Randy Crafton's wonderful studio, Kaleidoscope Sound, 15 years ago. The experience was excellent in every sense of the word, but that's not why I'm writing this now.Recently, I realized that it would be a great help to a current project I'm engaged in overseas to recover the original files from that session. (I did not have them anymore). I assumed that Randy would have long ago purged them, but figured there was nothing to lose by reaching out to him and asking.Not only was Randy immediately responsive when I reached out to him, but he made a great effort to track them down, and send them to me, all with graciousness and ease.All I can say is that Randy is a wonderful human being and that anyone who reads this should know that if you choose to be his client, he will treat you as a client for life.Thank you Randy! May you and Kaleidoscope continue to serve your clients with care and grace for many many years to come. ... See MoreSee Less

Kaleidoscope Sound

It is with a very heavy heart that we pass on the news of our friend and beloved studio designer, Francis Manzella's passing. We have no details, but grieve the loss of this bigger than life figure. Francis was always generous with his knowledge, and put his recognizable sonic and aesthetic imprint on our studios. This is something we are grateful for every day. We installed a pair of his Griffen speakers in our Studio A control room during the Covid, and we were waiting for it to clear up in hopes he could come in and help position/tune, and "consecrate" them. More than a friend, more than a studio designer, Francis possessed a huge amount of knowledge and experience which he used to bring humor and practicality to very complicated, esoteric, and yet critical questions. I saw him near the beginning of the Covid, and he was busy, as always, and taking the Covid very seriously. I know he had a lot of projects on his plate, and his usual strong appetite for life. Life is never known. Create, live, and enjoy while we are here. RIP Fran. ... See MoreSee Less

Kaleidoscope Sound

Hello beloved Kaleidoscope clients. We hope you have been staying safe, and adjusting to this difficult situation. We are happy to announce that we are preparing to do a very careful re-opening. We are looking at the AES recommendations, as well as looking forward to some guidelines from 802. We have invested in Ultra-violet wands for sanitizing sensitive gear, and will soon have our full guideline in place. We will request that you look it over, and abide by it when we do sessions. We will need to err on the side of caution, as we do not ever wish to do any harm to the artistic community that we have now been serving for 20 years (can you believe it). Stay tuned, and give us a call, if we can be of any help. We are also planning to live stream concerts from the studio, so let us know about that as well. We are well rested (for the first time in about 20 years), and looking for ways to begin re-building our community. Thanks, and hope to see you soon. We know it has been very difficult, and it has been for us as well. We will get through this together. PS. Black Lives Matter ... See MoreSee Less
