A recording studio is a professional music facility that offers space and equipment for the production of recordings. They are often used by music artists and musicians of every genre, instrument specialization and background. These professionals range from solo singer-songwriters who record their first demo to orchestras and choirs that make masterworks.
A typical music studio consists of an acoustically isolated live room and a control room. The live room is used for performance, while the control room is where all the tracks are recorded, edited, mixed and mastered.
The acoustics of a recording studio are important to the quality of sound that is produced, and many large studios are designed around the principles of room acoustics. This involves designing acoustic treatment and soundproofing to achieve the desired level of reverberation in the rooms.
An acoustic engineer also designs the studio’s recording equipment and mixing consoles. During the heyday of recording, many famous studios had their own electronic research and development divisions that built custom-made equipment for their spaces. Examples include George Martin’s AIR Studios in London, Columbia Records 30th Street Studio in New York City and Decca Records Pythian Temple studio in New York.
In addition to the engineers and other music professionals, a recording studio typically employs a number of administrative employees who oversee maintenance, payment, payroll and booking. They also assist in marketing and branding strategies.
Music studio owners are usually former recording engineers and record artists who wish to open a studio that represents their own values. They may have previous experience working as a manager or recording engineer, and understand how to hire a strong team, delegate responsibilities effectively and use networking and marketing to attract and retain clients.
