No, our stages are not soundproof. Stage1 has 3-inches of thick insulation. It is considerably quiet, although if you plan on recording sound, ask the stage manager if it is recommended based on the length of dialogue you require.

Note: For music videos, music/dance rehearsals and other uses that will include music, we have a limit on how loud you can play music. We have residential neighbors across the street from our facility and we try to maintain a level of respect for how loud the music is played and late hours being played. The outside (street side) noise ordinance is 60 during the day (7am-10pm) and 55 at night (10pm-7am). We usually help you control and maintain close to that level by metering and communicating with you if it gets too loud. We can also add large rolling sound panels on the East side of the stage (street side) that can add another layer of containing the sound. However, if the base is too high it will start shaking our neighbors’ windows, if that happens, we will ask you to reduce base/sound to a more acceptable level. If you do not comply, we can and will shut the power off to the stage.

Stage2 & Stage3 are insert stages. They are located in our main building and in our Special Effects Headquarters. Our main building is a concrete building and can be significantly quieter.

We shoot commercials and other projects on all stages with sound, it is all dependent on need. We recommend scouting our stages to get a good idea of the spaces we offer, and which would work best for you.
