THE STUDIO — 90 FOREST ST, JERSEY CITY

THE ROOM

NYC-studio quality on the Jersey side of the river — not a home setup. A tube vocal chain, monitoring that tells the truth, and a full video setup in the same house. Walk in with a verse. Walk out with a record.

THE CHAIN

C800G tube condenser → BAE 1073 preamp → Antelope Discrete 8 conversion. The NYC-studio vocal chain, in Jersey.

THE ROOM

Treated and symmetric. Dynaudio BM15A mains over a 12-inch Kali sub — monitors that don’t flatter. You hear exactly what the record hears.

THE BOOTH

An isolated vocal booth. Silence outside, presence inside. Nothing on the take but you.

THE ARSENAL

Antelope Discrete 8 · Apogee Symphony · UA Apollo — three flavors of conversion on Furman-conditioned power. Pro Tools, Ableton, and the full UAD, Waves & Antares suites. Whatever the record needs is already in the room.

THE SET

Sony a7 IV with pro glass, lighting, a set that looks good on camera — and partnered Kick & Twitch channels to go live. Covers, visualizers, recaps — shot where you record, not bolted on after.

THE LOUNGE

Real seating for your people, not a hallway. Smoke-friendly outside the booth. Your session, your room.

Bring your engineer — or book ours.
