Who is Sunroom Studios

Hey, I'm Alex, and this is my Studio. Sunroom Studios was founded on a whim in early 2020 in my house tucked right outside of Asheville, North Carolina. The pandemic hit, everything went online, and I needed a space to continue my education in Music Production and Studio Engineering. We opened up to taking on sessions from the public in the start of 2023.

My goal was to create a unique, comfortable, "vibey" space that integrated with the world around it. To achieve that, I built the first room of the studio out of a Sunroom so that artists could respond to the beautiful nature around them while writing and recording. Since then, the space has expanded into a 4 room production studio offering whatever sort of recording spaces one could need including the Sunroom (also the control room), a Large Live Room, an Iso Booth, and Bathroom/Storage closet (thats wired for audio to get that nice nice verb).

I have found a passion in my work for recording full bands live in the room and really trying to capture the intimacy of that performance, then going back for overdubs to build the song out, and have designed both the studio and my workflow to work that way. 

My work during this time has also expanded past just doing studio work, and I have found a passion for both Live audio and Video Live-Steaming performances and events, which is something that is becoming more and more necessary with gathering not being as accessible to the world around us. 

Im lucky to have an excellent group of musicians, engineers, artists and friends who are heavily involved in making everything happen here, so whether its audio, video, or both, I am here to make your dream a reality.

Services We Provide

Recording -

Want to do some tracking for your upcoming project? Great! We offer recording by the hour here at Sunroom Studios. We have plenty of amazing equipment including state of the art microphones, amazing preamps and DAW plugins, Vintage Instruments and Amplifiers, and unique spaces to get any sound that you're looking for that are all available for use during our recording sessions. I know my gear well and can help you get together all the sounds you're looking for. 

Already have an engineer and just need a place to track and equipment to do it with? That's great too. As long as they have a computer and a DAW to record into we can get you set up to record for a lower fee!


Mixing -

For our mixing services, I take the audio you provide me with and get everything working together and sounding right. This includes, but is not limited to, creating EQ's to remove harsh frequencies, leveling channels, and adding effects, compression and saturation to get the sound that you're looking for. If you can hear it in your head, we can make the rest of the world hear it out loud. 

This process often happens without the client around during the whole process, but involves a lot of collaboration between me and you trying to get everything just right. 

When we finish the process, you will be provided with a high quality WAV and MP3 download of your mix .


Remote Tracking - 

Need something specific for that sound your working on, but don't necessarily know people to make it happen? We can help you out! As a multi-instrumentalist I can often track what you're looking for by myself, but I am also lucky enough to work around and be friends with many world class musicians who play many different instruments and many different genres! reach out to me and we can see what we can set up!


& More - 

Need some live streaming done and a location to do it? Want to do a product demo? Have an idea that doesn't exactly fall into other things we offer? shoot me a message and we can probably make it happen! I love hearing ideas and working with people however I can!
