Recording studio · Amsterdam Westerpark
Sound that serves the song
Vocals, bands, mixing, mastering and podcast — with an engineer, clear steps and rates you see upfront. No hidden hours, just a focused workflow near Westerpark.
Our approach
At Prozoneova recording means listening first: a dry vocal booth, a 38 m² live room for ensembles, and a control room where mix decisions are audible, not guessed. We work with artists, bands, producers and podcast hosts who want usable files back, not only pretty meters.
Every request starts with context — tempo, track list, deadline — so we suggest the right service and time block. You receive a written quote; the calendar locks only after a 35% deposit. Preparation tips live in our guides and FAQ.

Budget and planning for your vocal session

Mix handoff · 4 min read
Export stems and session files cleanly
Mixing starts with a clear transfer. Whether you export yourself or our engineer does after vocal recording or live recording: consistent stems save time and revision rounds.
