For artists who are in the room every month. The discount covers it inside a single 10-hour session.
Membership is an upgrade, not a separate sign-up. Start with a free account — it stays free for as long as you want it to — then upgrade whenever the discount starts paying for itself.

10 hours in the room covers the $35 membership on the discount alone. Book one 12-hour block and the month has already paid for itself, before the rentals and before the monthly master.
One free master a month
Mastered by one of our four veteran engineers, together combining over 50 years of experience! Send in a mix you finished anywhere. A fresh one is ready every month.

Sign in, register or upgrade
An account is free and takes a minute. Upgrade to Studio Member whenever the discount starts paying for itself.
Upgrading needs a free account first — register, then upgrade whenever it makes sense.
Book the room, member or not
Membership is optional. Anyone can book a session — an account simply keeps everything you make here in one place.
