    Really cool studio - fully equipped with tons of crazy gear - awesome outboard, every instrument…read moreyou could ever need. So many different mics - a lot of vintage ones too. Laid down vocals and 12-string guitar for a folky track. Danny B. the engineer I worked with was incredible - really flexible and meticulous with understanding my vision and making it happen. Did a three-mic setup for the guitar - and it sounds INCREDIBLE. Highly recommend for recording anything from simple folky acoustic all the way up to full band and everywhere in between. This place is straight up legit and captured my music in a way I'm not sure other studios could have. Again highly recommend working with Danny if you can. Prices are also pretty reasonable - will def be recording more here when I get the chance.

He's a fun and professional to collaborate with, and I'm beyond happy with how my song sounds as a finished product. I've been producing on Ableton for a few years, and I was specifically looking to work with someone in studio to learn and improve my mixes in general. I spent a few hours with Chris in his Oakland studio and learned so much during that time. It was one of the most informative sessions I've had since I started making music! Chris shared numerous different techniques and workflow tips with me while making suggestions and helping refine my track. It's clear that he's an expert in Ableton, but is also generous in sharing his knowledge. After our in-person session, we collaborated for another week or so via phone/e-mail through the mastering process. Throughout this process, he was thorough, patient, and gave invaluable feedback and recommendations - all while communicating effectively. Something I really appreciate about working with Chris is that he makes suggestions and gives honest feedback, but also makes sure that he respects the original vision for what the track should sound like. He makes suggestions but never pushes or makes it feel like you're straying or altering your original track. I look forward to working with Chris again! Highly recommend Mothership Studio.

    I could not be more pleased with ModernTone Studios, and would strongly recommend them to anyone…read moreconsidering making a professional music recording. I recorded an EP of 5 songs there last spring. I had never made a studio recording before, never even been inside a music studio, and didn't know what to expect. What they helped me create went way beyond what I had hoped for. Briget Boyle, the lead producer on my recording, has an incredible musical ear and instinct for what makes for a great sounding recording. She not only guided me through the recording process, making suggestions as needed, but arranged for a drummer and bassist (per my request) on some songs, and provided invaluable direction in shaping the sound. She also added keyboards herself, again per my request and in collaboration with me, which significantly enhanced the songs by adding dimension and texture. With masterful recording and engineering, as well as mixing and mastering, the end result was nothing short of magical to my ears when compared to what I was starting from. My songs went from simple guitar-and-voice bedroom recordings to fully fleshed out, professional and dynamic tracks that could be played on the radio, streaming services, etc. in terms of the quality of the sound. My vision for the songs, how I heard them in my head, was realized to my complete satisfaction- indeed way beyond what I had hoped for as a novice in the recording world. At ModernTone, you are truly in expert hands. They also provide a warm, welcoming, non-intimidating environment. Briget and the team were always friendly, kind, and patient. It is obvious you are working with people who are experts at what they do, and above all passionate about music. I've learned that a good ear and sensibility are priceless when it comes to studio recording, and you get that in spades at ModernTone. Thank you!

We started voice lessons with Diana Alvarez who is a joy to work with and my daughter looks forward to her lessons every week. This is the definition of a hidden gem.

For example, agreeing to mix & master a song for me and then not having the required plug ins or even pro tools on their laptop to do so... thus not sending me revisions as requested in time for my drop date , or ever. Pretty lackluster & disappointing when I consistently have spent $400-600 each session at this studio. Hire better professionals

    Nice place but hard to get anybody to be accountable, I talked myself into working on music again…read moreand $1200 of studio time and 4 songs later they said they lost my files and nobody will respond to me about a refund or free studio time to re record all my music over, I've text the owner and the engineer but no luck. Updated response to the business owner! I shoot video for a living I have 100 terabytes of data audio files are very small compared to 4K-8K footage I also RJ a commercial recording studio and I still have files for artist who have went to prison or lost touch 15 years later also other artist have passed away and I'm still able to give their kids and family files all these years later! Imagine if they erased all the famous artist sessions because you have so many clients this would make me not want to use the studio if was a artist and also your engineer did not disclose this I had no hard drive at the time and did not expect the engineer to quit or be fired
