Live Room
With over 600 square feet of floor space, our Live Room is well-suited to accommodate nearly any size band or musical ensemble. The space has been acoustically designed to capture a performance in a great sounding room.
Isolation Booth
Our Isolation Booth, is large enough to track drums, piano, horns or more typical uses such as vocal tracking or guitar amplifier isolation. The Isolation Booth has been acoustically designed to achieve “dry” direct-sound results.
Both instrument and speaker pass-throughs allow signal to be passed to the Live Room, Control Room or our Isolation Cabinet Room.
Control Room
Designed by Michael Blackmer, The Control Room at Dead Moon Audio features a multi-faceted approach of acoustical treatment and non-parallel surfaces designed to break up acoustical room mode resonances, minimize diffuse reflections and achieve “flat” acoustical response.
Both instrument and speaker pass-throughs allow signal to be passed to the Live Room, Isolation Booth or the Isolation Cabinet Room.
Isolation Cabinet Room
The Isolation Cabinet Room features two cabinets for isolated close-mic recording of speaker cabinets. With interior dimensions of 5.5’ x 4’ x 3’, these isolation cabinets can accommodate most commonly used speaker cabinets, including 8x10 bass cabs or 8x12 full stack cabinets..
With such considerable isolation, significantly high acoustic levels can be recorded from speaker cabinets, while musicians are located elsewhere with virtually no bleed to microphones tracking acoustic instruments in the Live Room or Isolation Booth.
Both instrument and speaker pass-throughs allow signal to passed into the Isolation Cabinet Room from the Live Room, Control Room or the Isolation Booth.
Lounge
The Lounge is acoustically isolated from the rest of the studio. This “hangout” room is a place to chill, have food and drinks, or generally do whatever while others are busy tracking, mixing, etc.
