ACME Recording Studio of Scottsdale,AZ

ACME Recording Studio of Scottsdale,AZ ACME Recording Studio of Scottsdale,AZ Located near the 101 and Thomas rd. See you here now. Located in south Scottsdale near the 101 and Thomas road.

We are a recording studio equipped with mostly analog gear built into a five bedroom house. A relaxing and roomy atmosphere with both an inside and outside lounge. Each room is used as a different location for drums, amps, vocals and such. Owner/operator Chris Pentecost has been recording music, running live sound, designing audio gear and a part of the local music scene for over 20 years. It is t

his experience that the studio gets its reputation of a quality live sound recording venue for your demos or album projects. Mastering to a digital format or to 1/4" analog tape and back to a digital format. We call it DAD, Digital to Analog to Digital. Karaoke singers are welcome too, unlike other studios, no project is considered to small or insignificant. We even do tape restoration and can record your favorite vinyl disc to a digital file or CD. The prices are set lower than the norm because there is very little overhead for the business to operate. The facility can be rented so you can bring in your own recording software, recording directly to your computer using your own engineer and producer. How about a high quality VCR Camcorder to record your instructional or audition videos. And that high quality VCR recording can be transferred to a popular digital format. Let's put that old wedding or kid performance recital to a playable file or DVD. The studio also sports a great variety of instruments for you to utilize on your recordings ie; drums, timpani, a lot of percussion toys, guitars, xylaphone, Amps, Wurlitzer organ, pedals and stomp boxes. I also have great connections for studio musicians to play and record your music. We can also record at remote locations like, your gig at a club or your living room where the grand piano is located. Silence is the soundscape waiting to be filled with your creative imagination. Let's record that.

A father and daughter duet in the studio doing a song for her wedding. He played guitar just fine, sounds great, man has his chops down. Daughter went in to record vocals, with voice breaking up, tears flowing down her cheeks, I asked...Do you want to do that again? It was a wonderful experience for all of us.

An Open Letter to Singers & Songwriters…
My name is Chris Pentecost. I founded ACME Recording Studio of Scottsdale,AZ in 2005. It is an independent studio that serves as a stepping stone for artists and writers to the next phases of their career. What are we NOT? We are not dream salesmen with smoke to blow about how we can make you a superstar.
We specialize in what is possible! It is possible to work with a studio who will simply lay out the terms of agreement, with simple and airtight wording.
It is possible to hear your songs come to life, without breaking the bank.
It is possible to get your music heard on commercial radio, whether it’s new and progressive or traditional.
I’d like to talk to you about your career. If you’re an artist, we can bring life to your music and help you to build your presence. If you’re a writer we can help you navigate the process from demos to music distribution.

In the studio today tracking electronic drums and guitar parts. ShanJam Crane is seen here playing one of the studio guitars. She seemed to like it just fine, the studded leather guitar strap, not so much.

Piecing together a drum kit in the studio today. Who knew this multi-facetted gem of a musician can also plays the drums. A jazzy number with those catchy vocals. This has been a real treat.

Oh what joy cometh our way. Shannon Crane in the studio today unlocked her vocal abilities through harmony parts. It was a magical session with main vocals and multiple harmony parts on a song named, Call me tonight. My ears tingled and arm hair stood on end hearing some beautiful notes come out of her. Not only has she got her voice together for her songs I would highly recommend her for harmony vocals on any other songs. Here she is owning it in the studio today. I must say that even studio dog Lily was blown away with this vocal talent.

There is a good bit of activity going on in the studio lately. Another mix coming along nicely, a song titled, “I Love You”, has made this a lovely place to be out of the heat.

If you are celebrating death and violence and are one of the people posting online about wishing someone died then remove yourself from my contact. I don’t care what side of the fence you are on in regards to any situation or how justified you feel in your stance. If human suffering or the simulation of human suffering is amusing to you and spreading hatred is a part of your dialogue then I do not want to be connected to you.
To wish death upon someone as a joke or in seriousness is beyond vile.
