About
Rico(Chief Engineer): For the last 15 years, music and sound engineering is what I have been doing every single day, most days from morning till night. I LOVE WHAT I DO! Everyone knows or can imagine just how good anyone can become at anything after that long of a period of dedication and passion. I also think out of the box and over the years have developed new innovative techniques and ways to make all recordings sound their best very quickly! I also start mixing during the recording process and never waste any time! But beyond all that, its about how you are treated and I treat everyone with respect and my goal is for my clients to feel 100% comfortable in a very creative environment.

Folks...
If you want a professional sound engineer, in the Santa Clara area, to record your session, The Sound Theory is your destination.. Professional, prompt, and superb studio/equipment. Most of all, Rico (audio engineer) is concerned about optimizing your session for peak performance... The Sound Theory is your destination.
.I know that for a fact. I have had that experience, and will go again. Thanks Rico - you are a Bay area recording studio treasure.... Harry

I've been going to Rico's studio for over 10yrs, and I'm damm sure going for 10 more. He get's me where I need to be before I know where I need to be, he's fast and able to produce a higher quality of sound than any other studio that I've been in. Rico is constantly progressing and keeping up to date with the rapid movement of technological advances in studio programs & equipment. He's the best all around.

I have worked with Rico for well over 4 years. He was always professional and it was always a pleasure to work with him. He listened to my needs and was accommodating to my needs. I always appreciated his feedback because I knew that he wanted to get the best out of me. He has a lot of experience and knows what he is doing. I would tell him how I wanted to sound and he found exactly what I needed. I am far away now, but I can assure you that I will want the Sound Theory to mix and master and future tracks.
The level of professionalism and knowledge is an invaluable service that I am going to miss greatly. I definitely recommend any artist to work with the Sound Theory for your recording needs.

Rico has a great ear for sound. Whatever you need in a song he can bring it out. He has a diverse musical backround and knows his way around in a studio. He's easy to work with good at adapting to anyones work ethic.

If your looking for a place with the best of the best studio equipment and a super producer then the sound theory and Rico is your man.I have been doing music for over 12 years now and have been to countless studios but nothing ever seems to compare to the sound theory!Rico has an ear for music that I have never seen in another person.He has truly made my music sound 100% better and has made me step it up as an artist.His rates are really reasonable and he is always working on your stuff even if you take a break he stays on it at the same time keeping it professional and giving the artist the attention and feedback they need.Holler at Rico and tell him Fatdoo sent you I promise you will not be dissapointed!
