We love the sound and the process of great analog recording. One of the best sounding and most rewarding experience a musician can have is tracking an album with a live band and capturing your performance with beautiful warm analog gear. We offer live band recording packages starting at $400. Record the way you play together and capture the magic!
We offer Protools and Logic audio production services starting at $80/hr with engineer. Great for recording vocals, instruments, multitrack music projects and overdubbing on your home studio tracks to make them sound 'pro'. If you are producing an artist this is a great place to work with them and create their best work in a proper studio environment.
JKS produces audio books for best selling clients, VO for commercials, film and TV projects, audition submissions, meditation recordings, podcasts, editing and we can host your talent in our private studio with plenty of room for producers to work. We can sync to video and our vocal booth has an HD monitor. More cost effective than driving to Burbank!
JKS Recording Studios is reviving the vintage analog recording tradition. We have developed a process for high quality recordings of bands playing live that fills a need in the music community. Record the way you rehearse and capture the magic you create together. We offer affordable packages starting at $400.
