our recording process
pressure's off
Go on - make a mistake! Because we record everything digitally it gives you breathing space to make as many mistakes as you need to - we can just record over them until you nail the take you love. Parts of different takes can even be stuck together to make one perfect whole.
more time making music
A major benefit of recording everything digitally is that we avoid a lot of wasted time fixing old gear, rewinding tape and creating traditionally complex workarounds. This efficiency frees up more time to focus on your music – more takes, more creative options, more fun! The music just turns out a whole lot better.
making you sound pure, full & warm
The studio recording equipment your performance will benefit from represents some of the most current and critically acclaimed within its class. From microphones used by top LA producer Joe Chiccarelli to preamps owned by guitar legends Mark Knopfler & Dave Gilmour we are firm believers of the adage "quality in, quality out" and are on a mission to ensure the sounds from your performance are pure, full & warm.
Some gear might look great with its flashing lights and super-shiny fronts but does nothing for your sound. We avoid all that bobbins!
artist comments
"Recording my CD was a blissfully smooth process. The studio environment very much made space for both creativity and comfort. Mark's working approach was flexible and fun, and he demonstrated some true creative-genius flair! I am very pleased with the end result and will be quick to record with Stompbox Studios again."
