Rehearsal recording

Run through sets with mics in the room and leave with stereo references the whole band can review before the show, before booking separate vocal overdubs, or before committing to a studio multitrack day. Staff note tempo changes on the take sheet when they happen.

Band rehearsing in the live room while engineer records

Rehearsal recording targets full-band layouts in the 42 m² live room—drums, amps and vocals happening at once. We aim for separation without killing the room energy.

This is not a final mix service. Use captures to judge arrangements and tempo; later Mixing or Voice recording can replace parts. We note tempo and key when possible. Ask about combining a rehearsal block with evening Voice recording slots when planning a full production week.

How it works

  1. Line-up

    Share lineup, song count and volume expectations via Contact. Confirm drum kit plans.

  2. Stage plot

    Gobos and distances tame bleed; headphones or room monitors for internal balance.

  3. Takes

    Run-throughs plus section passes with engineer watching levels.

  4. Share

    Stereo reference mix by default; optional spot mics as WAV when time allows.

When bands book

First full run of new material, set-order checks, rhythm resets after member changes, pre-venue confidence runs. Choose Voice recording when only isolated vocals matter.

Booking

Monday–Friday 11:00–22:00, Saturday 10:00–20:00. Closed Sundays and public holidays.. About 8 minutes on foot from Shibuya Station (Hachiko Exit) via JR, Tokyo Metro, Tokyu and Keio lines.

We document gain staging choices per song so recalls stay predictable if you return within the archive window.

Reference tracks should note which element you want matched—transient shape, vocal brightness, bass weight—not the entire production aesthetic.

Consolidated feedback emails speed up turnaround; scattered chat messages during critical listening slow engineers down.

When booking overlaps with mastering, tell us the target platform early so mix bus headroom stays appropriate.

Instrumental or TV mixes need separate quotes; mention them before the first pass to avoid rework.

We can provide muted or censored versions when platforms require clean uploads alongside explicit masters.

Check mono compatibility on earbuds before approving a mix intended for wide release.

Keep backup copies on your side even while our 12-month retention applies on さくらインターネット株式会社.

FAQ

How many songs fit a block?

The ¥17,600 block often covers four to six four-minute songs if changeovers stay tight.

Bring spare strings and cables; downtime still counts toward booked hours.

Is there a drum kit?

Studio kit use is by arrangement; tell us about cymbal or snare preferences ahead of time.

Can we post references online?

Only with the band’s agreement and proper rights clearance; see Terms and conditions.

Can references become a release mix?

Yes—route multitracks to Mixing as a separate paid step.

How loud can we play?

We set ceilings for the building and other rooms; discuss heavy genres when booking.
