Plug in. Hit record. Walk out with a finished episode

A booked block of time in the treated podcast room, with a producer present. You get broadcast-grade microphones (Shure SM7B by default), headphone monitoring for everyone in the room, and multi-track recording, so each voice lives on its own audio file. A rough mix is emailed to you within 24 hours of the session ending. Coffee, water, and a parking spot are part of it.

Multi-camera video and same-day editing are optional add-ons. Podcast hosting, feed submission, and marketing aren’t part of a session. They’re separate services we offer if you want help.

It depends on the format (interview, video, or live), how much production support you book, and whether the booking is one-off or recurring. Solo audio sessions sit at the lower end. Recurring weekly hosts get the best per-session rate.

The most accurate quote comes from a five-minute call, where we work out which format fits your show. There are no hidden fees, no setup charges, and no required upsells.

No. Everything you need to record a publishable episode is already in the room: microphones, headphones, mixer, recording laptop, and multi-cam if you’ve booked video. If you prefer a specific microphone, or a guest is bringing a remote setup, we can work it in.

We recommend you bring an outline, a water bottle, and any visual props if you’re recording video. First-time renters often show up empty-handed and leave with a finished episode the same day.

Yes. The booth supports up to three cameras with broadcast lighting, for video podcasts and YouTube-first shows. We can frame for horizontal master cuts and pull vertical social clips from the same shoot. Video sessions run longer than audio-only because of lighting setup, so block extra time.

Not sure you need video? We usually advise against it for a first episode. Get the show on its feet, then add video once the format is locked.

An hourly booking is one block, paid as you go. A recurring slot reserves the same day and time every week, or every other week. It comes with a per-session discount and skips the back-and-forth of scheduling each time.

Recurring is the right move once your show is publishing on a real cadence, typically after episode five or six. Before that, hourly is fine, and it costs less than the commitment.

Both options exist. You can record at the studio and take the raw multi-track files home to edit yourself. Many renters do. If you want post-production handled, we offer editing, mixing, music beds, and show-notes drafting as a separate service.

Some renters book the studio plus a same-session edit, so they walk out with a publish-ready cut. Editing isn’t bundled into the studio rental, so you only pay for what you need.

No. We regularly host out-of-town guests, traveling hosts, and military personnel passing through Fort Bliss. The booth is centrally located in El Paso, with parking and easy access from the airport and the post. Recurring out-of-town hosts often batch four episodes in a single visit.

If you’re flying in for a session, tell us in advance. We’ll line up the schedule, the gear, and any video setup, so the trip is worth it.

For a standard audio session, one week of lead time is typical and three days is usually doable. Video sessions and full-day blocks need more. Two to three weeks is realistic during peak quarters. Recurring slots are scheduled months in advance, so locking one in early matters.

Same-week emergency bookings happen, but they depend on the producer’s calendar. The contact form is the fastest way to find out, and we usually reply within one business day.
