About this space
Our studio was designed by Lou Clark of Sonic Space and built by Picker Construction. This team helped us create a beautiful, collaborative workspace. Plaid Dog features 3 isolated tracking rooms, including a live room with a 20ft high ceiling, perfect for getting lush, larger-than-life drum sounds. Our main iso booth has excellent line-of-sight to the live room for live tracking. Our two control rooms have been acoustically tuned for optimal, flat frequency response to create an ideal, reliable mixing environment.

About Plaid Dog Recording
We help artists raise funds to record commercial albums at our studio in Boston, MA. Artists work with our team of producers and crowdfunding experts to ensure success while maintaining 100% ownership of their music. Travel costs and lodging are included.
We re-imagined how records are made.
Being a recording studio in Boston, we got tired of seeing artists struggle to fund their next record and decided things needed to change. With our team’s experience as producers, musicians, and marketers, we realized we could create a better way for artists to fund & record music.
