Recording
TRACKING - $350/10 Hour Day
18 Channels of digital I/O fronted by a 1989 Soundtracs MRX 32 analog console straight from Nashville, and a collection of outboard preamps. Our mic locker is a mix of new, vintage, and custom built microphones, geared to capture every performance in stunning detail.
MIXING - $175/Song
Every state of the art audio plugin you can imagine, plus unique hardware integrations. We deliver consistent professional results on every mix. Whether you want a polished radio sound, or lo-fi indie, we have the tools and knowledge to make your project sound its absolute best. Mix rate does not include drum edit, which is an additional $75.
MASTERING - $50/Song
When the mix is done, it’s time for finalization. All our masters leave here at industry standard loudness, correct formatting for the intended medium, and are archived forever in our system. Whether it was tracked and mixed here, or elsewhere, we’ll get it where it needs to be to stand out from everything else on the playlist.
PRODUCTION SERVICES
If you’re a solo artist in need of a backing band, you’ve come to the right place! All of our collaborators are multi-instrumentalists, and seasoned songwriters. We love when someone walks in the door with nothing but a vocal hook and asks us to help bring their vision into reality. Rates vary by player and amount of material to be written.

Meet the Engineers
Patrick Sheufelt has been a musician and audio tech junkie for nearly 20 years. Upon starting this studio in 2018, he began the new pursuit of a professional level education in audio engineering. Not the type that you get out of a box at any for-profit university, but a real-world understanding through working with and learning from the same people that make your favorite records. He has worked with such artists as The Suicide Machines, Possession.1981, Fake Plants, Frank White, NWRH, Easy Beach, Grey Gardens, Dear Heretic, Never The Crash, and many more.
“I believe what it takes to make an iconic recording is numerous factors all intersecting perfectly. It starts with a great song, it’s fueled by quality production, and it’s captured, mixed and mastered by a totality of understanding in the field of engineering. In short, every detail matters.”
- Patrick Sheufelt, Chief Engineer.

Super nice things that cool people have said. Listen to their music!
“When we got the final master back from Pat I almost cried listening to it, it’s wild to literally hear how far we’ve come since our first EP, and it’s all there in "Catbath".”
— Easy Beach’s Ian Cruz, interview with Brooklyn Vegan, 2023
“Thanks so much man, I’m blown away by these [tracks.]”

“You have far exceeded our expectations.”
- Donald Dobos of Never The Crash
