Do I need a isolation booth?

I've been to a few studios that had a recording area for bands and they also recorded vocals in there.

How are we supposed to answer this? We don't even know where you are, what type music (style) what type music (instruments)... Andre

I make Hip Hop/R&B music for the most part but I use live instruments alot. Most of the time the different players are not in the studio at the same time. Example.. I make a beat add some parts to it. think I need a live bass, bring one in he/she does their thang, I add some more parts then I might need a sax , I do this untill I feel my track is finished. That's how I work sometimes. In my new spot I want to have the ability to do a whole band at the same time. So I guess I may need a iso booth. I'm also thinking of trying to do some radio commericials. Take advantage of my Marketing degree.

Its your decision and market. With what you have written, I would go with one big room. That way I can: Get a big group of musicians at onc: and Get a bigger natuaral ambience sound for single tracks. For much live isolation I waould use gobos and some wired cable runs into adjacent louneges/offices etc. Andre :wink:

Thanks for you response.
