Frequently Asked Questions

Clients have a lot of questions before entering the studio. We hope to answer those questions on this page. More questions and answers will be added in the future.

How do I set up studio time? Can I do it online?

Sorry, you can't set up a session online, but you can get things rolling by calling Christopher! at (717) 657-3724 or e-mailing him at christopher [at] decapolislabs.com It will help a lot if you have a few dates in mind already in case the studio is booked for the time you want to record.

What do I need to know when I call?

We'll need to know the following information (just so we can figure out how best to get things done):

  • A range of dates you have available to record
  • What general style of music or performance you want to record (rock, hardcore, country, voiceover, showtunes, etc.)
  • How many members are in your band and what they play
  • How many drums your drummer uses
  • How many songs you would like to record
  • What kind of recording you want to make (demo, fully-produced record, etc.)
  • Do you want to record live or instrument-by-instrument?
  • Do you want to play to a click track/metronome?
  • How much time/money you want to spend on the recording
  • Any special deadlines or circumstances that may affect the recording/timeline
