Analog warmth. Modern precision.
Riverway Studio is currently under construction in Bostwick, FL — a purpose-built recording environment designed from the ground up for serious music. Every decision, from the room geometry to the wiring, is being made with one thing in mind: the sound.
At its core, Riverway is built around an analog-hybrid workflow. Tracking and recording flow through real analog hardware — consoles, outboard dynamics, and a combination of analog summing — capturing the warmth, character, and depth that only physical signal paths produce. Most studios mix inside a computer, and we can certainly work that way. However, at Riverway, we prefer to mix out of the box — and our console's onboard automation system makes that possible without sacrificing recall or precision.
We're accepting early inquiries now and will begin booking sessions when construction wraps. Reach out to get on the list — we'd love to hear what you're working on.
opening soon
Full live room for bands, podcasts, voiceovers, and solo artists. Tracked through our analog console. The room sounds like music.
Mixed out of the box through the Tascam M-3700's VCA automation — every fader move committed to the analog signal path. Full outboard dynamics and reverb in the chain. We mix for feeling first.
Stereo and stem mastering for vinyl, streaming, and CD. Reference-quality monitoring chain. We master to last — not just to be loud.
From demo to finished record. Our in-house production services bring arrangement ideas, session musicians if needed, and deep knowledge of what makes a song connect.
Broadcast-quality voice recording ideal for podcasts, audiobooks, ADR, and voiceover.
Available when the studio isn't tracking. Perfect for pre-production and performance prep.
The Tascam M-3700 is the control room centerpiece — a 32-channel fully balanced inline analog console with modified input and master sections and full VCA automation for true "out of the box" mixing. For extra flavor, the Yamaha M916 handles drum and vocal tracking and serves as a summing mixer, adding more analog iron to the signal path.
Genelec 1030As as the primary reference — accurate, unforgiving, trusted. KRK V8 Series 1 as a secondary check — warmer, consumer-adjacent. Two perspectives on every mix.
The MSR-16 isn't in the room for nostalgia — it's there because tape does something to audio that remains genuinely useful. Running through tape, transients are gently rounded, the low end thickens, and individual tracks begin to feel like they belong together. It's not distortion in the negative sense — it's the kind of character that makes a recording feel like it was played by people in a room, not assembled on a screen
4× BSS DPR-404 Compressor/De-Esser and 2× BSS DPR-504 Quad Noise Gate give us sixteen channels of outboard dynamics. Paired with the Lexicon PCM 90 — the gold standard of studio reverb — for a signal chain that shapes and spaces every source with precision.
Pro Tools running on an Apple M4 Mac — the industry standard DAW on the fast Apple Silicon. Used for editing, comping, and post-production work alongside the analog and hardware recording chain.
Two 24-track hard disk recorders running in tandem — 48 tracks total. Both units have been upgraded with SSDs for silent operation, faster load times, and improved reliability. Records at 24-bit / 44.1, 48, or 96kHz. No computer required — just press record.
Every studio starts as a dream. A control room with plenty of space for gear and listening, an ample live room for tracking, all with one thing in mind - the sound.
Non-parallel walls and ceiling slot resonators control flutter echo and comb filtering. The room breathes — no dead zones.
Proper mix position, ample room for gear and plenty of space for client comfort.
Each room is built around acoustic honesty. The goal is to produce the best recordings in an environment that is condusive to comfort and creativity.
