I want to do a podcast but, know nothing about what goes into sharing it with the world. Help!
At Motor City Woman Studios, the only thing you need to concentrate on is your content. We will handle the rest! Check out the Packages page to learn more.

My podcast is already active. I just need to use the studio for a few interviews.
No problem! If interviewing guests at coffee shops and libraries has grown tiresome, reserve recording time at Motor City Woman Studios. We will edit the file and then send it to you for sharing.

Can I use licensed music in my live show or podcast?
No. Since we do not own the rights to the music; we can not include it in downloadable files such as Soundcloud and podcasts. We will work with you to identify and secure appropriate music for your podcast. You are welcome to give us music that you have had produced especially for your podcast.

How many people can the studio accommodate?
Our custom-made recording table features 5 industry-grade ElectroVoice microphones.

What are the costs to record at the studio?
Costs range depending on the project. Visit our Services page for a list of available projects. In general, recording time starts at $75 per hour. Have a project idea? Contact us for a customized package!

I am /my guest is in another state/country. Can I still utilize your services for my podcast?
Yes! We use a VOIP service to capture the best audio quality possible – in and outside of the recording studio. We schedule secure recordings via the internet.

Are kids allowed in the studio?
Not only are kids allowed – they are welcomed! Motor City Woman Studios was intentionally designed for family. Our lounge area offers free WIFI and space for kids to stretch out. As long as their guardian keeps them quiet (unless they’re part of the recording), babies and kids can come on in!
