Tight budgets and impractical travel logistics can turn a dream recording session into a major hurdle, and many artists are rethinking how they bring their music to life. 

With over a decade of experience in live streamed studio sessions, PARMA’s GRAMMY®-winning team has helped artists around the globe overcome these barriers through expertly-coordinated productions, from LSO St. Luke’s to the recently-acquired Studio Martínek in Prague.

Whether you’re across the country or halfway around the world, you can still be in the room and experience the magic of a studio session — virtually. 

Read on for a few insights from the team on live streamed studio sessions and their efficiency.

How it Works

Cross-continental recording has become a real possibility for today’s artists through modern software capabilities. 

By streaming pristine, real-time audio directly from our recording studio, PARMA’s production team can collaborate with artists around the world in a single session. We facilitate truly real-time collaboration between the composer, producer, and ensemble. 

While a recording ensemble performs music in the studio, composers and other personnel can connect with a producer and provide feedback over video call, placing their expertise directly in the room without them physically being there.

Collaborate with Artists Worldwide

Live stream studio sessions remove the red tape and allows composers to collaborate with top musicians around the world without geographical limitations. Gone are the days of settling for a particular sound due to logistical constraints. 

Soloists and ensembles with specific expertise or desired tonal qualities are easier to reach than ever, and artists can select a production team that best fits their needs without the need to reach them in person. 

Record Your Music With Ease

Perhaps your local studio doesn’t suit the needs of your project. With live stream studio sessions, you can access leading studios around the world with world-class microphones, acoustics, interfaces, and engineers. 

Accessing these studios remotely also benefits from flexible scheduling and cost efficiency, avoiding the expenses of travel, boarding, and more. Pay only for the recording session and post-production, which can often be more affordable remotely. 

PARMA’s production team handles the hard work that comes with a studio recording, from mic selection, set-up, and placement to coordinating with musicians, facilitating the recording process, and assessing any technical difficulties. 

So long as stable, high-speed internet connection is available, composers can call in and watch their music come to life, and PARMA will handle the rest.

“The recording went well. Jan was on top of everything, and expertly guided the session. This is my second session with him, and I am grateful. Jiri was fantastic conducting, cleaning up intonation and shaping phrases. The string orchestra was excellent.”

 – Composer Matthew Hetz on his December 2024 remote recording session with PARMA

Even if the entire group can’t physically meet for matters of health or convenience, we can still bring everyone into the room to make seamless music that sounds terrific.
