Pachyderm Recording Studio is a residential recording studio located in rural Cannon Falls, Minnesota, 35.8 mi (57.6 km) southeast of the Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport. It is located in a secluded old-growth forest with a vibrant trout stream. The studio, founded in 1988 by Jim Nickel, Mark Walk and Eric S. Anderson, with acoustic design by Bret Theney of Westlake Audio, boasts the same Neve 8068 recording console that was used in Jimi Hendrix's Electric Lady Studios. The house was designed by Herb Bloomberg - a top student of Frank Lloyd Wright. Engineers at Pachyderm include Brent Sigmeth, Zach Hollander and Andy Lindberg.
