recorded right.

DIY Recording Studio pairs a live music studio for tracking with a dedicated control room for mixing and mastering — for artists and bands who'd rather spend their budget on studio time than a big-name name.

ROOMS02 — Music Studio / Control Room
HOURS09:00 — 21:00 daily
BOOKINGBy the hour

Two rooms, built to work together.

Track live in the music studio, then step into the control room to mix and master — no gear to haul between spaces.

ROOM 01

Music Studio

The live tracking space — an iso-capable corner for drums and amps, a treated vocal position, and room for a full band to set up and play together.

ROOM 02

Control Room

The engineer's room — calibrated monitoring for mixing and mastering, with the same signal chain used to track, so what you hear is what you get.
