OUR PROCESS

​

COASTLINE Records Florida Studio specialize in hosting musicians, bands, voice actors, and other sound artists and performers in order to capture and produce clean, professional-quality audio. It’s our space, equipment, skills, and expertise which bring our clients to the next level. COASTLINE Recording Studio is a professional recording studio located in the heart of North Port, with a focus on comfort and a stress free environment. 

​

We strive to get the best performance possible from any and all band members at the time of recording, and not sacrificing this to skip forwards to the mixing phase. We have learned over the years that getting the best quality sound and the best performance possible at the start, will ensure a high quality studio production. 

​

Since we are not a "pay per song" studio, and charge hourly, we also closely log all hours, breaks, artist delays, as well as create a timeline to keep our engineers and band members on track during studio time. This way you can get the most out of your studio time, without the headache of worrying about overextending your budget. COASTLINE Recording Studio will always try and give an accurate representation to a length of time needed to complete the project at hand. 

​

When you are paying hourly, the studio is not the time or place to write a song and create new parts. If something just isn't working - COASTLINE Records will always step in to assist in the creative process to give advice to you.
