National Recording Studios Open Day - May 29th
Saturday May 29 will see a fresh addition to the annual NZ Music Month calendar with the first national "Recording Studios Open Day".
Between midday and 4pm, a variety of professional studios around the country will open their front doors
to anyone interested in taking a look inside. Owners, engineers and staff will be on hand
to answer any questions about the studio and the recording, mixing and record mastering processes.
The national "Recording Studios Open Day" is a new initiative aimed at encouraging more musicians to take
advantage of the wide range of recording studios and in-house recording professionals available around the country.
Co-ordinated by New Zealand Musician magazine www.nzmusician.co.nz
the afternoon provides a rare opportunity for musicians, artist managers, music students
(and those expected to fund new recordings) to find out more about local studio facilities, as well as the distinct audio quality benefits of recording in a professional studio environment.
Participating studios range from the high-end and long established likes of York Street and Stebbing Recording Centre in Auckland, to Palmerston North's vibrant and incredibly low cost community facility known as The Stomach. Entry is free and each studio will offer its own programme of information and entertainment.
