Recording Studios
Vocal/Isolation Booth
Our dedicated vocal booth is a fully isolated recording space designed for pristine vocal capture and total creative focus. Built with professional soundproofing and acoustic treatment, it eliminates outside noise and reflections, giving you studio-grade clarity on every take.
Inside the booth, artists can control their own headphone mix through a dedicated monitoring station—perfect for dialing in the exact balance you need to deliver your best performance. Whether you’re tracking vocals, voiceover, podcasts, or layered harmonies, the booth provides a comfortable, controlled environment free from distractions.
We offer a wide selection of premium microphones tailored to any vocal style, including the Warm Audio WA-87, Slate M1 Modeling Microphone, Shure SM7B, and additional dynamic and condenser options to match your tone. From intimate whisper tracks to soaring rock vocals, our booth captures every nuance with exceptional detail.
Control Room
Our control room is the nerve center of Hypernova Studios—engineered for accuracy, flexibility, and the unmistakable warmth of world-class analog gear. Every session runs through a powerful hybrid workflow blending high-end digital clarity with legendary analog character.
We offer a premium selection of preamps, including SSL channels for clean, punchy detail and BAE (Neve-style) preamps for that iconic warmth and musical saturation. Paired with high-resolution MOTU conversion, your recordings capture every nuance with depth, realism, and huge sonic dimension.
Monitoring happens in a professionally treated room on Focal, MixCube, and PreSonus Sceptre coaxial reference systems, giving you a precise listening environment where mixes translate anywhere—cars, earbuds, clubs, and beyond.
Live Room
Our live room is a spacious, professionally treated recording environment designed to bring out the full power and character of real instruments. With expertly tuned acoustic treatment, the room delivers controlled reflections, balanced frequency response, and the perfect amount of natural air—ideal for drums, guitar amps, bass rigs, acoustic instruments, and full-band tracking.
From tight, punchy modern drum tones to warm vintage-style room ambience, the space is built to adapt to your sound. Multiple mic positions, isolation options, and a clean, flexible layout make it easy to shape the vibe of your session.
Whether you’re laying down heavy rock drums, capturing the energy of live amps, or recording intimate acoustic performances, the live room provides the space, clarity, and sonic depth needed to create truly professional recordings.
Podcast Studio
Our podcast studio is a fully equipped, multi-camera production space designed to give creators a professional, polished show without the technical headaches. The room features complete audio isolation, studio lighting, and a clean, modern visual aesthetic that looks great on camera.
We run a powerful, broadcast-grade setup with three PTZ cameras, a high-end Sony studio camera, and a full OBS/ATEM Mini Pro switching workflow—perfect for live streaming, multi-angle interviews, round-table shows, or pre-recorded episodes. Guests see a real-time preview of their show, and creators can monitor everything from a dedicated control station.
Audio is handled through premium vocal mics and clean preamps, ensuring a warm, clear, radio-quality sound every time. Whether you’re recording solo, hosting guests, or running a recurring weekly show, the studio is optimized for fast, smooth sessions with zero setup required.
