Sonic Ranch, in the border town of Tornillo, Texas, is the world's largest residential recording studio complex.[1] There are five studios designed by Vincent Van Haaff[2] on a 1,700-acre (690 ha) pecan orchard,[1] which borders the Rio Grande and Mexico. Located 30 miles (48 km) east of El Paso, Texas, in the border town of Tornillo,[1] there are five houses on the property where artists stay while recording. The studio was founded in 1989 by the current owner/director Tony Rancich[1] around a large traditional Spanish hacienda, which is an adobe structure that was built in the late 1930s,[1] with pine-tree vigas as the ceiling structure. Some rock bands have noted the calm, rural wilderness and easy access to Ciudad Juárez across the border.[3][4][5][6]
