About The Customer
Jungle City Studios is one of today's most acclaimed recording venues, located in New York City. Founded in 2011 by GRAMMY Award-winning engineer Ann Mincieli, who has worked with artists like Alicia Keys and Drake, the studio is on a mission to make NYC the preferred destination for recording once again. Mincieli built the studio to be a 'seven-star hotel' for musicians, providing a level of service and creative freedom that echoes the legendary studios of New York. Since opening, the studio has hosted artists from Beyonce and Jay-Z to Depeche Mode and Taylor Swift, revitalizing New York's recording scene.
The Challenge
The challenge was to create a music and audio post-production facility that could attract top international artists. Jungle City Studios, located in New York City, aimed to become a preferred destination for recording, leveraging both vintage analog audio gear and the latest digital technology. The studio was founded by GRAMMY Award-winning engineer Ann Mincieli, who had a vision to make NYC a hub for recording once again. Mincieli's vision was to build a 'seven-star hotel' for musicians, providing a level of service and creative freedom that echoed the legendary studios of New York.
The Solution
The solution was to rely on Pro Tools to record, edit, mix, and master music in the studio. Jungle City Studios provides artists with an enormous collection of gear that Mincieli describes as 'retro-futuristic.' Mincieli relies on Pro Tools workstations, Pro Tools | HDX, and Pro Tools Artist Series consoles to create the digital backbone of the multi-floor studio. With Avid, Mincieli’s engineers can work with the speed, flexibility and tools that top artists expect to seamlessly capture award-winning performances. The studio combines the warm rich tones of a rare mixing console and the undeniable feel of vintage instruments with the power and flexibility of the latest digital recording technology.
Operational Impact
  • The operational results have been significant. The studio has successfully attracted top international artists, including Beyonce, Jay-Z, Depeche Mode, and Taylor Swift, among others. This has helped to revitalize New York's recording scene and reestablish the city as a preferred destination for recording. The studio's unique blend of vintage and modern equipment, combined with the use of Pro Tools for recording, editing, mixing, and mastering, has allowed it to deliver the level of service and creative freedom that top artists expect. This has not only enhanced the studio's reputation but also contributed to the success of the artists who have recorded there.
