The studio
A basement facility on Dogenzaka built so capture, mixing and mastering can stay under one roof at an urban pace. Operated by 合同会社valvularcloudco in Tokyo since 2019.
Three rooms
The live room (about 42 m²) handles band and ensemble work including rehearsal recording. The booth (about 12 m²) serves vocals and narration. From the control room you hear both spaces through a 32-input console and 4 nearfield paths.
Rates sit on services; workflows on voice, mixing, mastering, podcast and rehearsal pages.
Team roles
Managing member 森田 健司 plans and records sessions. A dedicated mixing engineer handles offline work; the studio manager coordinates booking, invoicing and delivery dates. The person who quotes is usually in the room for setup, so your sonic brief stays consistent.
We aim to reply within 2 business days—reach us via contact or read FAQ. Business clients: see 30-day terms in our terms.
Gear philosophy
Microphones, preamps and monitors are chosen for the job, not for a gear list photo. Share a set list and references before the session and setup goes faster.
See vocal prep guide for a practical checklist.
