okay, here's the deal...
if you're a pro player and you need a pro studio with
acoustically-treated isolation rooms, $2000 Neumann microphones & other
high-end gear, years of professional experience, and all the amenities
you'd expect if you're paying $60-$100/hour, Dry Creek is
not what you're looking for. Omaha has lots of great recording
studios, and I'd be happy to refer you to one. (click
here for a list)
But if your needs are simple, especially if you're a folk/roots
musician, and you're just looking for decent results on a tight budget, we
just might be able to help.
Hi! I'm Kyle
Knapp, a local folk/americana artist. I built Dry Creek
Studio 3 years ago to finish and mix my own recording project, and
discovered I have a knack for it. Actually "built" is a little
misleading - I upgraded the computer in my home office, adding a
professional-quality soundcard, investing in some decent
microphones and other gadgets, and installing industry-grade Nuendo
software (this is not hobby software, but a high-end product from
Steinberg
comparable to ProTools).
Since finishing
my last
album, I've done a number of demo and hobby recordings for friends,
launched a talk-show format
podcast,
and am currently working on a serious album project for Tyler Smith &
Sandy Cunningham (aka "37 Years") that I'm really excited about.
Nothing fancy or flashy here, but I'm getting excellent results and
only charging $20/hour! If you're looking to record your music, but
can't afford pro studio rates, check out our audio
samples and gear list, and if you like what you
hear, give us a call.
Thanks!
