What to expect here
Since 2019 we have been recording artists, bands, podcasters and producers in Amsterdam. We use fixed microphone choices, separate headphone mixes and an engineer who listens with you take by take.
You always receive a written quote before we lock a date. On session day we focus on capture; mixing and mastering are scheduled separately if you need them.

Guides
Practical notes on vocal prep, band budgets, stems for mixing and master formats — tied to our services.
Vocal prep · 4 min read
Get your voice ready before the booth
A steady voice starts days before you reach Overtoom 282. This guide helps you spend studio time on performance, not hunting lyrics or recovering a tired throat.
Band budget · 4 min read
Plan a realistic band studio budget
Studio days fill up fast when arrangements, overdubs and breaks are vague. This guide maps our band rates to a concrete plan for groups in Amsterdam and beyond.
Stems guide · 4 min read
Prepare stems for a smooth mix
A mix starts with the folder you upload, not the first fader move. This guide matches Mixing and keeps your 2 revision rounds for sound, not file fixes.
