    Revisiting this experience from spring 2022, as the owner had made a false claim in their response,…read moreindicating that I was on a tight budget. I have reviewed my email records with Soma, which I kept. I had consulted with the owner before booking a redo session, and was assured that the new recording would yield better results than the cheapest option I booked. For the first session, I had to request the vocal stems (dry vocals only) a day later as they were not ready the same day. Contrary to the post by Soma, if it were a budget issue on my end, I would not have re-booked at a higher price point at the same place. I was looking for usable vocals for my project, not just the cheapest option. I had to go to a different studio for the work. Professional enough, but not the place if you have never recorded and you are working vocals for a retro pop genre. Signed up for 2 different studios here (C & B, budget and mid-level) and in the end, neither output for the project was usable on a collaborative work. Texted (did not call) about what they could do to make it better. My suggestion would be a free mix and master on an outside project I have, if they read this, since there are no refunds.

The timeline had me a little stressed at the end but he got them done in time and the mastering engineer barely had to touch them!

    So after relocating to NYC I came down to visit Crash (pre-covid) to pick up some audio files. The…read morenew facility is amazing with the control room having a perfect monitoring room. The whole construction of the studio level ups far beyond any other medium-large set up I seen and revivals if not, beats many NYC studios. It is hard for me to describe how amazing it is but let me quote their webage so I won't paraphrase anything. "The New Studio Crash is a beautiful recording studio built from the ground up to be world class in the field. With a nice large control room, a huge 840sq ft. live room with 14 ft slanted ceilings, an isolation room, a vocal booth, and two separate amp closets we have plenty of isolated spaces to get great sounds without the need to overdub everything. This makes it possible to record very large groups live and still have plenty of elbowroom and acoustic separation. Construction. Many studios may beautiful on the surface, like ours, but what's really important here is the stuff you don't see. So what is inside the walls and below the floor? Our construction entailed room-within-a-room construction. This means the walls you see are actually TWO (2) walls; each of which have two layers of " drywall and special acoustic insulation for sound absorption and a 6" air-space between them. These walls are floating on a layer of neoprene for even more sound isolation. The two pieces of glass in the 8 foot window separating the control and live rooms are each 1/2" thick, adding to the sound control. Under our new strand woven bamboo flooring, each room has its own individual "floating" concrete slab, decoupling it from the other rooms' floors. Even the HVAC was carefully planned, with every send and return having it's own insulated flex-duct all the way back to the HVAC unit. We even installed that HVAC unit in a separate building to keep it's mechanical noise far away from the studio space. The new studio's room acoustics are wonderful. Careful consideration in the design was spent on choosing room ratios as mathematically non-correlated as possible, in order to achieve evenly distributed axial, tangential, and oblique room modes. This means we get an amazingly smooth and accurate frequency response in the room ambience. This is something practically impossible to achieve without building from scratch like we did here." Mike is a PRO PRO PRO engineer. He has a new control surface going from a C24 to a D-Command as well as some focusrite preamps. He can also work on analog consoles as well as digital. The only downside is the breakroom can use some working on (unfinished floors) and parking is a bit troublesome, (I parked in the CVS lot across the way) but what can you do?!? I'd take that perfect mix over anything! See you soon again Mike!
