arts & tonic
Equal parts art and technicality. Stir in tonic. Pour over ice.
Shaping Sound. From Studio to Stage.
arts & tonic is a boutique sound and AV studio in Vienna. Small by choice, precise by habit. For us, the quality of our work matters as much as the trust and personal contact we build with our clients.
Bring the art. The tonic is on us.

Live, studio and AV — planned, engineered and delivered under one roof. We’re equally musicians as we are engineers. Each project is different: we start with the music's intent and the artist's needs, then come up with our concept.
Record · Mix & Master · Create
Your record, sounding like you meant it: We are convinced that our own experience as musicians gives us the right foundation to help you reach that goal - from tracking and mixing to sound design, original music and video post-production.

A room where your music comes first.
We spend a lot of our time in the studio, sometimes it even feels like we live there. That's why it was our priority to build a space that feels like home - and we think you will feel it the moment you step in.
