Option 1: Rent the Studio – Step Into the Future of Sound
If you’re ready to capture your music at the highest level imaginable, Octave DSD Studio is open to you. Whether you want to book a single day, a week, or an extended session to craft your masterpiece, our world-class studio—equipped for 32-track tracking, editing, and mixing—with Paul McGowan engineering, is available for $1,500 per day, including our engineer. This is not just another studio; this is where music is recorded in its purest, most lifelike form.
Because we work in ultra-high-resolution DSD, the sound you create here is as real as it gets. We focus on making great recordings—capturing every detail, every nuance, with breathtaking clarity. We have full editing capabilities and all the essentials, including reverb, EQ, compression (if you want it), and plenty of studio tricks to bring out the best in your music. But where we draw the line is artificial enhancements like Autotune and heavy DAW processing found in Pro Tools and Logic. This is about authentic sound—your true artistry, elevated to its highest potential. If you're ready to experience what your music was always meant to sound like, we’re here to make it happen.
