RECORDING
Recording music is more than just setting up a microphone in front of an instrument. It's about getting the sound just right every step of the way from the sound source to the computer.
Selection, tuning and placement of the instrument, choosing the right microphones and preamps for the job, and creating the right environment for the musician to deliver their absolute best are all crucial steps in achieving the best possible recordings .
Besides being aware of this during the recording session, being well-prepared is absolutely crucial in order to achieve the sonic goals for the project. That's why I always ask for demo recordings of your tracks and invite you to a thorough chat about your goals and expectations for the process as well as the end product. Ideally, I'll come by your rehersal space before the recording session to hear how you hear yourselves and get a feel for the internal energy when the band is playing together.
How much does it cost?
It depends on the type and scale of the project. Tell me about your project and I'll give you a personally tailored quote.
How long is a day of recording?
Usually 8 hours a day but if the calendar allows it and the creativity and energy is flowing I see no reason to stop.
How long does it take to record a song?
I typically calculate at 1½ day per song but it depends on the genre, instrumentation, song length, sonic goals and budget.
Is it possible to stay overnight?
Unfortunately not. I recommend getting an Airbnb if you do not live in the Aarhus area.
Do we have to bring our own instruments?
Bring the equipment you are used to and defines your sound. Read about my gear and how to prepare for the studio here.
Is there free parking?
Yes!
How about food and shopping?
There's a kitchen with a refrigerator, microwave and boiler. Closest grocery store is about 1.5 km away.
