Why Record Your Podcast in a Studio
Most listeners won't finish an episode if the audio quality is poor. Recording in a treated studio environment eliminates the room reflections, background hum, and inconsistent levels that home recordings often have. It also makes the post-production process faster — cleaner source material means less time in editing and restoration.
At StudioToGo, podcast sessions use the same booth and microphone setup as music sessions. The acoustic treatment is thorough, the Neumann U87 captures spoken word with natural clarity, and the signal chain is set up for speech — slightly different EQ and compression settings compared to music recording, tuned for intelligibility and consistent delivery.
Formats We Record
We handle single host, two-person interview, and small panel setups. For interviews, we can mic each person separately and deliver individual tracks, which makes editing and levelling much easier. Panels work best with no more than three or four people in the room — beyond that, we'd use our event recording service which has a wider multi-mic setup.
Want your podcast to sound distinctive? We also produce podcast sonic branding — intro themes, outro music, segment stingers, and transition sounds that give your show a consistent identity.
What You Get
- Individual tracks — each speaker on a separate WAV file for editing flexibility
- Deliverable in MP3 192kbps and WAV — ready for upload to any platform
- Basic level balancing — included in the session, so the files are usable straight away
- Session engineer — sets up levels, monitors recording, and manages the session
Editing and Restoration
Full editing — removing filler words, cutting sections, adding music — is not included in the recording session but can be arranged separately. If any audio needs cleanup (noise reduction, de-essing, mouth click removal), that falls under our audio cleanup service.
Pricing
Podcast recording sessions use the same hourly rates as other studio bookings. Studio A starts at AED 350 for one hour. A one-hour episode typically records in 1.5–2 hours of studio time, depending on how many re-takes you need. See full pricing at our homepage.
