Who dry hire is for
Dry hire works best when you or somebody in your team is confident operating professional studio equipment. It suits self-recording artists, writing sessions, producers, vocal recording and experienced freelance engineers.
If you would like somebody to set levels, run the recording and support the session, choose an engineered session instead.
Affordable studio time
Standard dry hire starts at £15 per hour with a two-hour minimum. Longer packages and prepaid studio-hour bundles can reduce the effective hourly cost. The booking system shows the exact live total before payment.
