Recording Studio
We’re excited to welcome patrons to our newly upgraded Recording Studio, now equipped with powerful, easy-to-use tools for podcasting, music, voiceover, and video projects.
What’s New

Updated iMac workstation for smooth recording and editing

Scarlett 18i20 mixer with front-panel controls and an Auto Gain feature that sets levels based on your speaking or singing volume

New microphones and permanent boom arms for flexible, hands-free positioning
Improved cable management for a clean, professional setup
A printed quick guide for the mixer is available in the studio, and returning users do not need to retake the Recording Studio Orientation.
Flexible, Patron-Friendly Setup
The boom arms are permanently mounted but fully adjustable. Simply loosen the joints to position the mic where you need it standing or seated then tighten to lock it in place.
Familiar Workflow
The studio operates much like the previous setup, with a clear power-on sequence and intuitive controls. Popular software, including GarageBand, Logic Pro, and iMovie is ready to use, and a USB-C hub allows you to save your work to USB flash drives or SD cards.
Ready to Create
Whether you’re recording solo or with a group, the upgraded studio is designed to be approachable, flexible, and professional. Check it out during your next visit and keep an eye out for updated orientation materials and finishing touches as we continue to enhance the space.
