Hey E-Train...
Might be too late, but a minor correction:
While I still do sessions at Ultrasuede, I'm no longer at QCA. I work at Sound Images, which is a 3 room commercial PT facility (1 big studio, 2 smaller rooms, and a separate composition suite where Rob Fetters, of Bears and Psychodots fame, works. I made the move to focus on new media, but still master, and my room here is better than my old one by any measure (getting better still).
Another PT facility nearby is Sonic Arts, right around the corner. I believe Ric Hordinski's place, Mersey Beat, is in Over The Rhine, just north of downtown. To the south, Ashley Shepard's in Newport, Erwin Muspar's in Ft. Thomas I believe (I saw him at QCA a lot but haven't been to his place. The Grande Dame of Cincy music rooms has to be Group Effort, which is in Cold Springs KY. 2 room studio, using DP last time I was there, alongside analog. Been around since i was in high school in the 1970s, and everyone from Blondie (back before they took over the space) to Afghan Whigs have recorded in the room they're working in today.
Ultrasuede's got the most history of the current crop: We took over QCA's old rooms, back in the early 1990s because they sounded gorgeous, and since then we've hosted many bands from the road, including Coldplay, Sum 41 and Cowboy Junkies, and cut the most notable local releases of the 1990s as well. Babyface was given his nickname in QCA Studio A by Bootsy Collins. "No Parking on the Dancefloor" and a ton of urban dance classics were cut by Midnight Star and many others when Reggie Calloway took over the spaces. Cool space. I cashed out in 2000, but still love working there.
