If they don't have an answer for you (or what you want), they know how to get it instead of saying "we can't do that". I'm a sucker for small business that goes the extra mile and these guys most certainly do. Highly recommended. You a Chicago area band that wants a high quality studio experience but can't get into or afford big city studio time? It's well worth your efforts to come out to Sterling.

From start to finish, Jessi, Colin and Max went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of the recording process was seamless and professional. First and foremost, the studio itself was top-notch. They have an amazing amount of options of microphones to choose from, I went with a Sennheiser 416. Additionally, the studio's acoustics were excellent, providing a clean and crisp sound without any unwanted background noise, we used studio A mostly. The entire recording process was enjoyable and stress-free, I was there a lot so that's saying something- Overall I can't recomend them enough. If you're looking for a recording studio that will deliver then make sure you work with them.

I thought It was just designed to record live bands, it had everything setup for us, from the drums to microphones, chairs, for us. This studio has capacity to record modern music as well as live rock bands. Tony was patient with us. He treated everyone with respect and helped record our song. The end result was better than we expected it to be. We will work with oxide lounge again. Recommended!

These guys are pros all the way. Our mission was to replicate the Universal Recording Studios in Chicago during the 1950's & 1960's and Maxim/Solid Sound achieved it! The studio is large and comfortable, they have an array of top of the line gear and are very proficient with Protools and modeling software add-ons. Our engineer, Joe, was very open to our ideas and goals, he worked with all that we requested...and there was a lot. If you need to record, you need to be here... It doesn't make sense to try recording yourself at home...let someone else do the engineering, we were able to concentrate on being musicians and creating music.
