Recording studio – how to be good!

As I sit here drinking a cup of coffee after a short (but intense) recording studio in my hometown London meeting, I have a question, rang through my head. The problem is I have a customer came to our recording studio based in London, she asked, “what makes a studio good?”

a relatively simple issue of right. My initial reaction was to talk about the quality of the audio hardware to understand the correct application software. But it happens, my gear does not make a good studio, which makes it “can.” There is a great producer, not to the studio, it’s just so good producers. You can put a great producer in a bedroom, he sounds great.

So, I looked at different issues. From the customer’s point of view, I looked at it. I asked myself, what makes the “studio” experience “good?”

the power to ask the question like this, I think we record companies in London and how we can improve our service to customers.

a good recording studio experience starting from initial contact through follow-up customer service part of the actual record, of course, is the most important piece of the puzzle, but here is what I think is a good .. and the “great” an important pillar of studio experience.

easy communication

our studio in London there is a problem that we can not always hear the phone ringing!

in London small recording studio, we can not hire the man who calls, because all of our actions, the first line of production, mixing, mastering and general things.

So, on our website, we have a form requiring interested in the customer’s phone number so that we can call back, as long as we break from recording, which was perfect for our studio in London, so that we can concentrate on our work, while providing customers a quick and simple way to communicate.

explanation

We know that many musicians in the studio with little or no experience, so to explain how things work very important it not only helps clients to prepare, but it reduces them, otherwise there may be any pressure or nerves.

ready

some of the studio (not all) will always be prepared for clients and their clients only pay figure, and in the studio, why they should “be prepared” according to their own time.

I think the studio complete basis for recording, which will ensure that they understand and digest the customer’s projects and needs to ensure the project’s basic reverb settings and install the same time, they should be inserted in the project will need any audio.

Finally, the studio producers should ensure that all individuals work is completed, so that he can fully concentrate on the client and their studio session.

Focus

The last point is its own paragraph. to ensure that all individuals work is done, the producers can concentrate may sound obvious, but so many manufacturers will consider other things that might work with them affected the work and the client.

this is human nature, let your mind wonder, but to do a creative art, the real focus and commitment required to do the things!

skills

producers must have complete command of his gear, do the best work for clients there for the job skill level is absolutely must be used for any commercial studio producer

support

a client needs support in the studio for a studio experience is a huge, Producers must make customers feel at ease and give positive, or to support energy for the entire session.

direction

a big studio production providers will direct the project, even if the client is the boss, the producer shall focus and move the project successfully completed. producer’s goal should be to the customer within the budget to get the absolute best results, rather than let things roll, to extend the Recording time (and therefore costs)

quality

recording quality should be high enough, any song, you can publish business and this is not difficult, today’s technology, it must not send commercial studio clients, poor audio quality of a completed project, unless it is a “sketch” concept.

after care

client should feel supported, even if they have left the studio and they should be able to easily access the lowest cost and data files. a great studio musicians will recognize the need for follow-up their projects, may require additional advice and support along the way.
