FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Everything you need to know about working at SENTEMENTE | Creative HUB.

  • Yes. There is a parking lot right in front of our building where you can park for free.

RECORDING STUDIO

  • Studio sessions are up to 8H and usually run from 10AM until 7PM (1H lunch break included) but we can also start at 12PM and end by 8PM with no break for a full meal.

    Resting properly between sessions is key to keep creativity going however, when we’re still being productive, sessions can be extended, within reason, for an additional hourly charge.

    The clock starts at the time the session is scheduled to begin. Load-in, studio setup and breaks are included in the session time. Load-out can take place after the session ends.

  • The tone of a record is carefully crafted in the tracking room so different recording techniques and a lot of other details related to the studio setup will greatly affect your tone.

    This is an essential part of any production, and it’s the first thing we do at the beginning of each session, in order to capture the sounds we need for a given track or style of record.

    Most times, you can do backline load-in at an earlier date, before the day of the session. Let us know ahead of time if needed and if possible, we’ll figure out the best time to do so.

  • This really depends on what you’re recording and your experience in the studio but it’s always a good idea to discuss your project with us prior to recording if you need advice.

    Short sessions are great for quick edits, mix revisions or other small tasks that do not require setup time for tracking.

    Half day bookings gives you enough time to track single vocals, do some light overdubs, or short production work.

    Full day bookings are where most serious recording happens, especially when drums, amps, multiple performers, or detailed setups are involved.

    Project rates are also available for EPs, Albums, or multi-day bookings. Get in touch to learn more about a special package deal that fits your project.
