Seattle Vocal Recording Studio

Hi, I’m Mike—founder of Sendai Studios.

I’ve always been obsessed with music and sound which led me to opening Sendai Studios in its current form in 2017. Since then, Sendai Studios has grown into one of the most in-demand vocal recording studios in Seattle, with artists and clients traveling from across Washington and beyond to achieve cutting edge modern sounds. We make your music sound like it does when you imagine it in your head.

What makes this studio different is simple:

We prioritize the artist and the outcome, not just the recording.

Our team of producer-engineers are also artists, which means we understand:

  • How to get the best performance out of a session

  • How to balance creative direction with technical precision

  • How to create an environment where people actually feel comfortable recording

Whether you’re stepping into a studio for the first time or you’ve done this for years, the goal is the same:
capture your best possible performance and make it translate

If you’re looking for a professional vocal recording studio in Seattle for music, voice over, or audiobook production, you’re in the right place. We specialize in recording, mixing and post for vocal recordings.
