Tracking Rooms at Monarch Studios
About this space
The studio features four more isolated rooms for tracking: a Live Room, large iso booth (called the Piano Room), Vocal Booth, and an Amp Room. The tracking rooms feature great sight lines, and all rooms are connected with speaker and instrument lines for flexible and creative setups.
LIVE ROOM
The Live Room is the main tracking room, and has a large window that provides lots of natural daylight. It has a custom designed ceiling cloud made of diffusion and absorption, helping to make the room sound even larger than it is. Two of the walls feature real brick, and have six hinged acoustic panels that when closed offer a more bright lively sound, and when open, a more dry and controlled sound.
VOCAL BOOTH
The Vocal Booth looks into both the Live Room and Piano Room and as its name implies, is a great place to isolate vocalists.
AMP ROOM
The Amp Room is an ideal place to isolate guitar or bass amplifiers while tracking with a live band. With ample instrument and speaker ties, you can be anywhere in the studio with your pedal board or amplifier head next to you, with your cabinet or combo amp isolated.
PIANO ROOM
The Piano Room is often home to our 7’6” Yamaha C7 Grand Piano and Hammond B3 Organ/Leslie cabinet. The piano can also easily be moved into the Live Room for recording, or to free up the Piano Room for tracking other as your session requires.
HEADPHONES
Headphones are controlled with an Aviom headphone system. This allows each musician to quickly dial in a personalized headphone mix so that they hear exactly what they need to perform their best.
INSTRUMENTS
There is also an assortment of vintage instruments and amplifiers included as part of the studio rental, including Wurlitzer, Roland, Moog, and Nord keyboards, and guitar and bass amps from Fender, Vox, Marshall and Ampeg. We also have an inventory of in-house rental guitars, basses, drums, and cymbals – a list is available on our equipment page.
