About Studio B at electrical audio
11Christophe H wrote:The pragmatic point of vue about this particular configuration at elecricalaudio, with 2 studios, whose one is cheaper than the other is very understandable. But, I was wondering: do some bands, and not necessarily the poorest, ask for recording in studio B? A so high ceiling, such a live room, may seduce some bands who has the budget to record in studio A, but finally choose the 16 tracks studio because of this crazy live room. In videos on internet, we mostly see parts of sessions, interviews etc in studio B. Finally, what studio is more asked for recordings in a year at electricalaudio? Is the choice essentially a question of money?Plenty of people book B for its character as opposed to the price. I don't know what the percentage is over all, but for the bands I've recorded in studio B, I'd say about half of them specifically want studio B, the rest, it fits their budget a little better, or don't necessarily care. I should note that both studio's are virtually identical as far as what you record with (microphones, tape machines, and computers). I only say that because of your comment that studio B was the "16 track studio".As far as which studio gets booked more, it's kind of a crap-shoot. Historically, the bookings are pretty much evenly distributed between the two, with maybe more freelance sessions in studio B.
