Analog warmth. Modern precision.
CedarPoint Studio is currently under construction in Bostwick, FL — a purpose-built recording environment designed from the ground up for serious music. Every decision, from the room geometry to the wiring, is being made with one thing in mind: the sound.
At its core, CedarPoint is built around an analog-hybrid workflow. Tracking and recording flow through real analog hardware — consoles, outboard dynamics, and a combination of analog summing — capturing the warmth, character, and depth that only physical signal paths produce. Most studios mix inside a computer, and we can certainly work that way. However, at CedarPoint, we prefer to mix out of the box — and our console's onboard automation system makes that possible without sacrificing recall or precision.
We're accepting early inquiries now and will begin booking sessions when construction wraps. Reach out to get on the list — we'd love to hear what you're working on.
opening soon
Full live room for bands, podcasts, voiceovers, and solo artists. Tracked through our analog console. The room sounds like music.
Mixed out of the box through the Tascam M-3700's VCA automation — every fader move committed to the analog signal path. Full outboard dynamics and reverb in the chain. We mix for feeling first.
Stereo and stem mastering for vinyl, streaming, and CD. Reference-quality monitoring chain. We master to last — not just to be loud.
From demo to finished record. Our in-house production services bring arrangement ideas, session musicians if needed, and deep knowledge of what makes a song connect.
Broadcast-quality voice recording ideal for podcasts, audiobooks, ADR, and voiceover.
Available when the studio isn't tracking. Perfect for pre-production and performance prep.
The Tascam M-3700 is the control room centerpiece — 32-channel inline analog console with modified input and master sections and full VCA automation for true "out of the box" mixing. The Yamaha M916 handles drum and vocal tracking and serves as a summing mixer, adding more analog iron to the signal path.
Genelec 1030As as the primary reference — accurate, unforgiving, trusted. KRK V8 Series 1 as a secondary check — warmer, consumer-adjacent. Two perspectives on every mix.
16-track 1/2" analog tape machine. Because some things sound better when they've been committed to tape.
4× BSS DPR-404 Compressor/De-Esser and 2× BSS DPR-504 Quad Noise Gate give us sixteen channels of outboard dynamics. Paired with the Lexicon PCM 90 for a signal chain that shapes and spaces every source with precision.
Pro Tools running on an Apple M4 Mac — the industry standard DAW on the fastest silicon Apple has built. Used for editing, comping, and post-production alongside the analog and hardware recording chain.
Two 24-track hard disk recorders running in tandem — 48 tracks total. Both units have been upgraded with SSDs for silent operation, faster load times, and improved reliability. Records at 24-bit / 44.1, 48, or 96kHz. No computer required — just press record.
Two analog consoles, two different voices — the Tascam M-3700 at the center of every mix, and the Yamaha M916 bringing its own Japanese character to the signal chain.
32-channel inline analog console with modified input and master sections and full VCA automation for true "out of the box" mixing. The Yamaha M916 handles drum and vocal tracking and serves as a summing mixer, adding more analog iron to the signal path.
2× Mackie HDR 24/96, both SSD-upgraded. 48 tracks of hardware recording. No computer required — just press record.
The M916 is from Yamaha's Professional Series — built in the early 1980s when Yamaha was at the peak of their analog engineering. The key is the transformer isolation on every input and output: the same topology used in the most celebrated British desks, but with a distinctly Japanese character. The 24-volt audio rails give it enormous headroom, and the preamps are consistently the feature engineers note most — smooth, musical, and harmonically complex in a way that sits differently in a mix than anything from the SSL or Neve family.
16 input channels, a 6×4 matrix section, and those five mechanical VU meters that tell you exactly what's happening in real time. At CedarPoint it handles drum and vocal tracking and pulls summing duties — adding its character to the signal where it's heard most. Two consoles, two voices, one room.
Every studio starts as a dream. A control room with plenty of space for gear and listening, an ample live room for tracking, all with one thing in mind - the sound.
Non-parallel walls and ceiling slot resonators control flutter echo and comb filtering. The room breathes — no dead zones.
Proper mix position, ample room for gear and plenty of space for client comfort.
Each room is built around acoustic honesty. The goal is to produce the best recordings in an environment that is condusive to comfort and creativity.
