Metro 37 Recording Studio

We had a 2 hour recording session here and it was a great experience. Ryan was our engineer and he was so nice and made us feel very comfortable. I highly recommend this place to anyone. its a great gift to give to someone who loves to sing and/​or play the guitar.

Great place to record. Techs are well prepared. Comfortable atmosphere. Reasonable packages

Kevin Sharpe did an amazing job on our project. Every song sounds better than we imagined. We really learned a lot and can’t wait to come back to record our next cd. The gear is top notch and the staff is great!

Always a joy to sit down with Kevin Sharpe and let him do his musical magic — always a professional, always a complete «in your face» recording/​mixing/​mastering experience… which is sweet (and we know sweet)!

My friends and i called Metro 37 and asked to record one song. I told the guy what our budget was and he scheduled 6-​hour blocks of studio time for two days in a row including an engineer. The engineer cat was laid back and easy to talk to. The main recording room was pretty messy but had a great vibe. He let us move, remove, and use the studio’s equipment in any way we wanted. He asked if we would entertain his thoughts about the song and was helpful and professional. There are fast food places near by but i brought food for all so we wouldn’t have to stop for anything. The engineer never left his post so we fed him too.
The studio is hi-​tech in every way, but at the same time it’s shabby chic like a man-​cave or a bachelors pad. I arrived at the studio almost an hour early and it was open already. We did the first 6-​hours and went over time without additional cost. The second day, we got carried away and went over time by 2 hours, so we paid him for those extra 2 hours. The engineer was fun to work with and a few months later he came to see my band perform live.

Just recently started going here after doing some research. I’ve been to over 30studios in Michigan all claiming to be the «best.» Studios that have recorded Jay Z or Kid Rock, etc. I’ve paid all types of prices from $ 20/​hr to $ 125/​hr. Many studios that have great equipment yet the engineers know nothing! After getting frustrated with a previous studio who during my session would leave and take smoke/​drink breaks and still charge me, I began looking elsewhere. I came across Metro37 on Craigslist and said to myself, «why bother.» Yet I gave them a call anyways. After speaking to them I set a day to come record for a few hours to test it out and I haven’t been anywhere else! The sound was amazing, studio from outside looked small but is very big and very well kept! Has many separate rooms including a live instrument room.
The engineer took his time and provided me with an excellent mix. I even sent the mix to a studio in Tennessee where I have friends at who asked, «who mixed this? This is an awesome mix.» I didn’t feel like a customer here. I felt relaxed, not rushed and the engineer even gave input to my music and made small changes that made a huge difference! I’ve been to so many studios that just hit record and sit back and drain your wallet. But here they worked with me, answered any questions, helped make changes to music etc. Just an awesome experience with amazing, top notch quality and very good price! Don’t hesitate to contact this studio if you’re looking for somewhere to record!
