Recording Studio
Together with Merkin Concert Hall’s size and near-perfect acoustics, its state-of-the-art recording studio makes it a unique place to hold your performance. Our engineers can create complex multi-track recordings of any concert or live event – from solo recitals to performances with a 30-piece orchestra – at the highest level of quality using industry standard tools such as Pro Tools HD. The hall is also an excellent venue for film scoring.
