Coming Summer 2006!
Welcome to Sounds Like Recording's Myspace. Sounds Like is a state of the art recording and media facility located in downtown Roanoke, VA. Our mission is to bring our clients' vision to disk. The studio is designed to produce a wide range of sonic characteristics, from the ultra clean and modern, to the lo-fi and vintage, or any combination of anything between the two.
At Sounds Like, we believe in experimentation. We approach the recording process as an art-form. After-all, none of the great albums of our time were churned out for X amount of dollars an hour by bands worried about exceeding their budgets. The days of the large commercial studio are over. Our pricing packages are intended to be comfortable and convenient for the artist. While you are in our studio making music, we want the expense to be the last thing on your mind. There is also a furnished apartment on site. Forget the hotel. Stay with us at no extra charge. Catered meals are also available upon request. A free consultation is also available for every client. We like to bring our artist into the studio prior to tracking to see what works best for them.
At the heart of our studio is a 40x50 live room with 20 foot ceilings. Our live room is our most important instrument. It produces a lush natural reverb perfect for adding depth to any instrument. In addition to the big room, there is a 10x10 iso booth, and a smaller vocal booth available to our clients.
Signal is sent through some of the best modern and vintage preamps and microphones on the market to a quad 2.5 GHZ Powermac G5 running Logic Pro 7.2, Protools, and Bias Peak Pro 5. We have an extensive arsenal of software plugins on hand for signal processing.
In addition to audio recording Sounds Like offers:
-Analog to Digital Transfer- (clean up those old tapes, records, VHS and Super 8 movies. Store them to convenient digital media like CD and DVD)

Hey Jake, how's it going? I just wanted to say that I really appreciate the time you set aside for me and that I still plan on recording at your place. It just might be a little later on this year though. Thanx again..Take care bud..
Happy Valentines day.
We have a new record and a new band member and there are three chances this week to hear the band live in Virginia and West Virginia!

There is inconclusive evidence as to whether washboard-fueled vaudevillian ragtime/jugband blues and hillbilly swing madness improves or otherwise impacts your health. Thank you for taking a chance on it. Hopefully we will meet in person soon, where we can discuss at length these and many other fascinating topics.
Best,

A Benefit For Bryan Hoffa
Sound of Music Engineer, Producer, and Musician Bryan Hoffa was diagnosed with Guillain-Barre Syndrome, a serious but curable disease in which the immune system attacks the myelin sheath surrounding the spinal cord. As a result, the nervous system is short-circuited and varying levels of paralysis effect the body. Thankfully Bryan is now in recovery but it involves months of physical therapy and a long time away from work.
Some of Richmond's finest musicians have donated their time and talents to help the Hoffa family during this difficult time. All proceeds from this show will go to their daily living expenses.
