Audition Demo Recording & Filming
Crunch Studio offers plans for vocal audition recording, simple adjustment, and simple mixing.
Why not create your demo at a recording studio used for major projects and by many well-known musicians?
We use high-quality microphones (including the Neumann U87ai), recording equipment, and a spacious fully soundproof booth, allowing high-quality recording.
It is also possible to film and edit your singing performance.
Based on the purpose and application requirements of each audition or contest, we will suggest the best recording and filming method.
We also provide vocal direction free of charge from an experienced engineer with extensive production experience alongside top musicians in Japan and overseas, so please feel free to ask. (Click here for the engineer profile)
