An Introduction to Recording Studio Design

By Technical Advice

An Introduction to Recording Studio Design When you think about Recording Studios, the first thing that comes to mind is a state-of-the-art, private, recording studio featuring some of the best gear, ranging from the vintage classics to the latest technology, set in a friendly and creative environment.

There are loads of different types of recording studios, all designed for specific purposes. Speech and drama studios are optimized in terms of acoustics and equipment for speech recording. The acoustics of a recording studio or listening room are arguably more important than almost anything else!

The room dimensions are specifically calculated for acoustics, which makes it a bit like the chicken and the egg, you find out which dimensions work before you say how big the recording studio is going to be. The Highest Industry Ratio for a Successful Facilities include: - acoustics, recording studio, design, acoustics, installations, recording, studio, construction, acoustics, contractors, contracting, construction management, acoustical, design, installation, wiring, and even the air conditioning.

This involves two different aspects of sound, sound proofing and acoustics. The cost of low-end professional-quality equipment has dropped, so the output-quality distinctions between studios are less clear-cut nowadays. A lot of high-performance economical equipment is available now to enable the creation of release-quality material in home studios. Radio studios have to deal with a broad range of material. Small studios tend to be used for voice material such as interviews and drama; slightly larger ones can also deal with small-scale music recording.

Speech and drama studios are optimized in terms of acoustics and equipment for speech recording. There were once two main categories of pre-production studio - MIDI based and 'track-laying' studios, though they now are merging into an indistinguishable whole. Sampling-oriented studios are now common place, in fact almost all chart-oriented work includes some sampling. All of these studios can be constructed on a small or large scale, depending on the intended market and budget. For example, many studios are located for easy access by local clients - local meaning, for example, the same city. Some studios are located in the country for a quieter working ambience, or higher pretentiousness factor.

Many larger commercial facilities have several separate studios within them rather like a cinema complex, offering sometimes-overlapping spaces for different types of work. Studios normally require twenty-four hour access for arriving and departing clients. Planning or development permissions Studios usually require local planning/zoning permission, and specific permissions may be granted only on various conditions. Cutting studios specifically deal with transfer of material from tape source to master discs, with appropriate 'final tuning' for best results.

The expertise of the mastering engineers in getting the best possible result in the final processing is just as relevant to making a CD, so now they cut CD pressing masters instead!
