The Rye Room is cozy, warm and an easy place to relax for a day of recording. My band loves working with Matt and will continue to work with him for many projects to come!

A big thanks to Kendra, for showing us around Jackpot the other day!…read more I have worked in some really incredible studios in my life and all our unique in different ways. Jackpot feels at home to any musician who loves gear and loves to play with people in the same room. It's cozy and the colorful walls make for a fun environment to create.

Tape machines and digital options, affordable prices for the room 350 a day for all this gear and the space if a deal, and the engineers daily rates make it a very accessible studio for starters or veteran rockers a like! Looking forward to cutting some tracks here!

He was incredibly helpful and was eager to lend a hand or make sure that our day went accordingly, and there were no mishaps whatsoever! He listened to our needs and his creativeness helped bring life to our special day. There were mixes I thought I'd never hear in my life that just worked and he made great memories for us to remember. His partner, Michelle, brought a pop-up photo booth that allowed us to take photos, gifs, videos, and have the ability to customize it to our desires, and receive photos on the instant! The quality you receive when you hire these two is always a guarantee. This dynamic duo did a wonderful job and we are SO happy they were a part of our roster. Thank you DJ Sugar! I highly recommend your services!

His great skill doesn't come cheap - about USD $75-$100/hour, less for a full session I'm sure. If you've got the money and time, he's worth every penny. Even if you're a "home studio whiz", it's worth the couple $100's to have Ryan master your CD before release - he is without a doubt the best mastering engineer on the west coast (think: Portland's Bob Ludwig.) Again, not cheap, but you get more than what you pay for, and it's relaxed, fun and friendly. Recommended!
