Studio

Mirrortone Studios is a recording studio located in the heart of Midtown Manhattan; it is owned and operated by producers Roman Molino Dunn and Jay Rothman.

The studio has a sweet-sounding live room, stocked with a complete Pearl and DW drum kit, Yamaha U1 Piano, Marshall Amps, Fender Amps, Peavey Amps, and a full PA system. Mirrortone's main control room is built around a Protools HD2 system with an Apollo 16 interface to utilize the digital emulations of classic analog gear for realtime recording processing. In addition to the main system, Mirrortone houses some select outboard gear for advanced mixing and recording applications.

A completely soundproof vocal booth ensures that every subtlety of the singer is captured and can be mixed appropriately. There are sightlines between the live room, control room, and vocal booth so that full bands can perform and record live, yet in isolation. A fourth room houses a composition suite that doubles as a nap room for those long sessions. In larger band situations the additional composition suite can be dialed into the recording for another isolation room.

Clients also have access to our wonderful rooftop view of the Midtown Manhattan skyline and the Hudson River (we are a block away from the historic Intrepid) for whenever they want to take a scenic break from recording or mixing.
