Room C “Claude” at SoundSpace@Rabbit’s is a tightly appointed 14' x 18' music room in Asheville outfitted for musicians who need professional backline without the footprint of a studio. The room centers on a custom Mahogany-shell drumkit and a stack of high-wattage amps, set beneath high vaulted ceilings with HVAC and an air-purification unit for climate-controlled sessions.

What the day feels like

What it actually feels like to work here

Sessions in Room C are compact and focused: a small group can load in at ground level, set up on rugs over wood floors, and work under vaulted ceilings with climate control. The room’s equipment roster and mixer let players move quickly between live takes and controlled tracking, all inside an intimate space capped at five people.
