Dark Hollow Studios, located in Attica Kansas, is a home based, but
high end, digital recording studio. Specializing in recording music
projects, recording demos, and the cleaning up of and transferring of
music (or anything you have on cassette tape), from Cassette to CD.
We can take your song or project from the recording phase right on through
the mixdown, and end up with a completely finished, mastered, demo or
song with the analog modeling mastering software we have in house. So
there is no need to send your song off to a mastering house for completion,
we can do it all right here, and guarantee it will sound great, or your
money back. We offer a variety of software and hardware choices for
the recording process. You can find a list of most of the gear below.
Studio Musicians are available if your project
requires that. We offer a comfortable environment for the recording
process, and our prices are very reasonable, cheaper than you will likely
find anywhere around here. Most studios rates are in the $45.00 - $75.00
per hour range. It's true we can't offer everything the higher end studios
can, but we can guarantee that you will walk away with a great sounding
demo CD, your money back if you're not satisfied. Our recording software
is cutting edge and the board we use (Mackie) has some of the cleanest
mic preamps going. We have the latest release of Cakewalk's top of the
line software (Sonar 5) and it now includes some fantastic third party
plugin effects with the package. We are continually upgrading and adding
to our equipment as well. All in all we think you will be very pleased
with the final product.
Currently we are taking clients by private appointment
only.
