Studios are known for having some of the finest recording-quality gear available on the market. Firstly, you can expect to find some incredible instruments that will elevate your recording massively. Then, depending on the studio, you can find vintage analog gear and state of the art audio interfaces to make sure your recordings come warm and clear. Outside of this you can expect to find acoustically perfect recording rooms to ensure the live instruments and vocal recordings are crisp.
Practice. Practice. Practice. There is no other way to get cleaner takes and sound more confident in the studio than practicing alone and with the group. There is no time to waste in the studio, and going in not knowing your part or being uncomfortable with it is going to be the biggest waste of time.
Recording studios are normally hired on a per hour basis and require a minimum amount of time to be booked, which is usually about 3-4 hours. The going rate can vary from $50 to $350 per hour depending on the studio and the rate of the producer. Having a producer in the studio is key to getting the best possible sound, because they know the ins and outs of the studio.
