Over the years studio rates in San Francisco have fluctuated pretty significantly but we tend to cater to a broad range of projects so we like to keep things as straightforward and affordable as we can for everyone. When booking, first decide which room works best for your project and then which engineer you’d like to work with. Rates for engineers vary, and if for some reason you decide that you’d prefer to hire from outside of our house list you’re welcome to. Just keep in mind that we may require an assistant to help while your engineer gets acquainted with our room. If you have any questions, we’re happy to help figure things out.
