Studio 401 is a San Francisco-based recording studio available for the recording, mixing, and mastering of music and spoken word of all styles. We have worked with some of the Bay Area's finest musicians as well an increasing amount of international artists with recent projects in Brazil, Argentina, and England.
Our goal is to help you produce a high quality product whether for a demo, a live recording, a website, a radio spot, a karaoke mix, or a complete CD in a friendly, supportive and relaxed environment. We also offer a range of related services such as transferring your tapes and valuable vinyl to CD with no hiss and no clicks.
Our web site hopes to give you enough informa-tion and good feeling so that you will come and check us out for your next project. Although we are proud of the quality and musicality of our recording equipment, ultimately we know that what matters the most to you is “Will I have a comfortable experience in creating a great sounding musical project at a price I can manage?"
As you read through our services and equipment please bear in mind that we don’t mention a Neumann microphone, a TC3000 reverb or Sony Oxford EQ to bore you with technical details, but because they can add tremendous presence and depth to your music. We use the tools that suit the music - the right microphone and preamp, the clarity and precise editing of Pro Tools HD, the flexibility of Nuendo, the warmth of the Tascam MX2424.
We work with you as a team from the first note to the last, whether you start with us from the beginning, or bring a partially-completed project.
Give us a call. Come and visit us. Tell us about your project. Let’s see how we can work together.
