Studio Equipment & Features:
a 1900 Sq. Ft. Private Building with 14' ceilings, surrounded by peace & quiet in Delaware, OH with plenty of free parking. The location is a 30 minute drive from the Airport and 30 minutes from Downtown Columbus, OH.
The studio features a hybrid analog/digital control room, a live production room, a 24 channel wired stage, drum recording room a photography studio, and most importantly, a bathroom.
The Center piece of our studio is the Antelope Galaxy 32 Interface with the highest level Mastering Grade Analog to Digital Conversion.
We believe that 90% of your effort when recording should be capturing the source. The other 10% is mixing. That is why we love tracking in Analog as much as possible. We have a lot of unique choices when it comes to Microphone Preamps, EQ's & Compressors in the studio.
Having the ability to mix and master primarily in Analog is incredible. The Hybrid Studio allows for all the depth, color and warmth of analog with all the advantages of modern technology that the digital world gives you.
Our Live Room Features a Stage with 24 Input Channels and tons of lighting choices. We use P16 Monitor Controllers so the band has total control over what they are hearing.
We have a 5' Weber Baby Grand Piano that is the perfect blend of bright and mellow.
We have a Live Performance Rig featuring a Wing Rack & 4 sets of stereo in ear monitors.
We have 3 House Drum Kits to choose from as well as a variety of cymbals and snares.
We have several Guitar and Bass Amplifiers to choose from.
We have a dedicated area just for Drum Recording that has more sound isolation if you're looking for a dryer more focused sound.
We have a wide selection of microphones for every situation like Tube Mics, Large & Small Diaghram Condensers, Ribbon Mics, Broadcast, Dynamic & Mics for Recording Audio for Video. Part of the fun is trying out different microphones, preamps and compressors to see what you like. It helps you to make better buying decisions along your engineering journey.
We use Canon Camera's for all of our classes & workshops. We have several different bodies and lenses to try out. All of our cameras are Mirrorless & use RF lenses. We have tons of lighting and background options and primarily teach Capcut for editing. We believe that Capcut offers the most to beginners that want to make great ads fast.

Home Recording Academy
Hello! My name is Bradley Schultz. I'm a Producer, Engineer, Videographer, Artist & a bunch of other stuff. I started the Home Recording Academy to help Artists, Songwriters and Content Creators take control of their careers.
I graduated from Belmont University in 2006 with a Bachelors in Music. My dream was to build a home studio that could do anything that the big studios could do. I wanted the highest recording quality with the freedom to work when I wanted, or when inspiration hit.
Instead I got married, had babies and started a plumbing business. Such is life!
But... In 2022 I sold my plumbing business and decided to go all in, building the production studio of my dreams. Now in 2025, I am opening the doors!
