WHY SHOULD I USE THE TREECAVE OR ANY STUDIO?

​With the technology available today you could create your project in a home studio with a laptop and $100 USB microphone, BUT the added smacks, hisses, pops, buzzes, and noises the mic will pick up will decrease the professionalism and quality of your project. We will edit your piece so the sound is flawless. It is our job to make sure that it is targeted for your audience, spotlessly edited, and that you get a QUALITY end product.

​The TreeCave has the facilities, and equipment to ensure your project gets the attention it deserves.
