Recording Studio Services
Services Overview
Recording service
We offer high definition recording with high quality, great sounding microphones. We can record up to 32 tracks at once if necessary. Our 3 separate sound treated rooms make for easy sound isolation and great, clean recordings. All tracked through our high end AD/DA converters, into our latest, state of the art, custom built, high performance recording and video editing pc from Puget Systems!
Our live room is equipped with a 24 channel snake, plenty of room, and power outlets, and up to 4 separate Hearback (tm) monitoring systems. We also have a few different amps and cabinets to play through, as well as direct input options, re-amping, or you can bring what you are used to using.
Our drum room is equipped with a 16 channel snake, and a Hearback (tm) monitoring system, as well as a Pearl World Series drum kit (full kit).
Our vocal room is well treated and equipped with a 4 channel snake and a Hearback monitoring system, and we have plenty of various types and brands of microphones.
Mixing service
We take pride in creating top quality, great mixes for all of our clients. Wether it be a live event or recorded material, regardless of where the recording originates, we go through all tracks separately and clean or fix, if possible, any problem areas (noises and un-desired sounds, bad pitch or chord(s), etc.). Once we have performed the "inspect and clean" processes, we then go through each mix extensively, always staying focused on the overall soundscape, feel, and "presence" of each mix, always focused on keeping the clients goals and wishes met.
Our control room is set up to be acoustically accurate, as well as ergonomically functional. With cost effective, but highly useful control surfaces to aid in mixing, effects adjustments, and mix automation. These tools aid in making the mixing process fast, and accurate.
That being said... It is worth pointing out that whenever you are planning to record in a studio, if you expect quality results, always plan your time accordingly. For a great example of what we are talking about here, check out this article about
Budgeting - Quality over Quantity
.
Mastering service
When we where setting up our control room, we kept mastering in mind at all times throughout the design and construction process.
Our recording facility utilizes a high grade, studio master clock for perfectly synced audio and equipment. This has a tremendous
effect on the quality of what is being recorded, mixed, and mastered. It is a crucial studio tool that helps us make better choices
when working on recorded material.
This allows us to make better sonic decisions in recording, the mixing phase, as well as the quality of the final master.
We offer our mastering service to anyone in need of this service. Contact us for more info if interested.
