The Things to Consider Before You Start Building Recording Studio Design

By Sharonda Allmon


A recording studio is said to be a room that is equipped with apparatus specially made for the making and chronicling of audio performances so that they may be kept for replications and reproductions at a later time. There are different kinds of studios in which one can make recordings. Some of which are professional studios which have different specialties like pre-production, sampling and mixing down and home studios which are of course built in a person's house.

It is important to finalize the whole thing before starting on the recording studio design whichever of the above mentioned is being planned to be made. Location issues, budgeting, and matters of size would not be resolved when you are without a conclusive decision.

As the name clearly states, a home studio is located in somebody's house. These types of studios can be placed into classifications in to two even smaller groups which are the "semi-pro" and the "pro". When we talk about a semi-pro studio, the available resources in the latter would include equipment that are good enough for making demos and experimental materials while staying on a cost efficient budget.On the other hand, a home studio classified as "pro" means that the place is actually a professional studio, but is just privately owned. This would also conclude that in terms of the apparatus found in commercial pro studios, the studio also has and that recordings made in the latter are good enough for market consumption.

In contrast, professional studios, as previously stated, have different specialties like sampling, pre-production, and mixing down. This means that the recording studio design for a commercial studio would depend highly on its field of concentration. Pre-production recording studios are said to be dealing with pre-recording, of course. Studios that focus on sampling are the ones that handle manipulating of complete musical scores with the use of a sampler on the other hand. These are the ones designed for the remixing or making new versions of already finished audio tracks as for mix-down studios. This can actually be done with the use of different tools which will help in the synchronization of different beats and recorders that would put all of these together. Other types of professional studios would include Sound to Picture studios, Radio, Speech and Drama studios, and Cutting studios. The first would deal with putting audio to edited video such as commercials and movies. The second one is being created specifically for recording interviews and dramas. While the third is made specifically for the relocation of material from a variety of sources to the final master disks.

It is important to know what sort of facilities you would want it to have before making a recording studio design. In this endeavor, finding the right location also plays a vital role. In addition, it should also be understood whether the studio is to be commercial or personal because the two have very differing consequences related to them. Try to find out what those are in this article.
