Testimonials

“Very professional, cool and extremely dedicated to meeting our requests for the session. Thanks guys!” — Band: Erronious Krunk

“When I record at Range, I feel at home. It is a place for musicians to create and explore, and it is run by musicians and music lovers. [The general manager] and engineer Brian Ritrovato have always allowed me to have the experience of working as a professional musician in a professional atmosphere. The live room is fantastic and Brian is always open to investigating new sounds, mic placements or anything else myself or the band suggest. His patience and competence has always allowed myself and my groups to get exactly what we want, every time. Marc Eimer keeps the place running smoothly all day, everyday—What else can I say? I can’t wait to track there again.” — Dylan Mulcahy, Drummer

“Each breath of emotion and tonal nuance is captured—microphones to instruments, pro equipment, mastermind engineers, and rooms of acoustic heaven.  It is here that sound waves can reach their destiny—a space for the range of capabilities to be achieved.  It’s more than recording—it’s an experience.  A place that feels like home.” — Christie Lenee, Singer/Songwriter/Guitarist

“Any session that I have ever been involved in at Range has been handled in an extremely professional way. They go above and beyond everyone else when it comes to caring about the project you want to create. Their professional staff mixed with their top notch facility and awesome gear will give you a great experience every time. I’ve been recording various projects at Range for the past 3 years and I must say they’ve consistently impressed me with everything they provide. To put it simply, Range does it right!” — Clay Stiles, Producer & Bassist (Band: LP Stiles)

“In this world of button-pressing, mouse-clicking and so-instantaneous-it’s-meaningless communication, it is a pleasure to deal with the personnel at Range Records. Their attentiveness, follow-through and caring would be accounted rare in any industry; in the music business, however, it makes them unique. If it is important to the customer, no matter is too trifling or inconsequential. They are as zealous of perfection and quality as any team with whom I have worked. In sum, they are current and cutting edge with technology, yet old world and courteous in terms of customer care —  an enviable combination indeed. They are scrupulous, fair, detail-oriented and try their best to help the customer maximize the project budget. The products I have produced with their help have been accounted outstanding, both in terms of music and graphics.  I recommend Range Recording Studios unreservedly and unqualifiedly.” — Marshall Portnoy (Cantor – Main Line Reform Temple)

“Range Recording Studios was first presented to me by Marc Eimer. When we met it was actually the first time I stepped foot inside Word Cafe Live and he was the first person I saw (set up to the side with a table representing Range Recording Studios). I knew that if the studio, staff, and the rest of the experience was anything like the passion Marc displayed…WyldLyfe would truly be in for a treat! It proved to be that and more. From the convenient location (distance, food spots, Free parking, etc.) to the state of the art facility, we were blown away. Not only did we find ourselves in a place where we feel totally comfortable, but we also feel compelled to push our creative ideas to places we Dream of. Range has the power to make artistic visions a reality. As an artist/producer, that’s heaven on Earth. Which is why we’ll be recording part of our New EP “Road Less Traveled” inside Range Recording Studios.” — Semaj “Chess” Worrell (Group: WyldLyfe)

“The staff is always great to work with and extremely knowledgeable & professional. They offer up advice about song structures, etc, but without being pushy. In the end, they realize it is the artists’ project and they have to be happy. I have been at other studios where the engineer will come off as very bossy and pushy and I just don’t get that vibe when I work at Range. Finally, while they are not a dedicated mastering house per se, my band [The Absolute Zeros] had our latest EP mastered at Range and were extremely happy with the results.” — Stephen La Monica, Bassist (Band: The Absolute Zeros)

“I highly recommend Range Recording Studios. The staff is friendly and will accommodate any scheduling need you may have. The recording is crisp and clear. I enjoyed working with Brian. He didn’t stop until the demo was perfection. It’s nice to be around people like Marc and Brian who have such passion for music and making music. At Range, music matters, and the final product speaks for itself.” — Kendal Conrad, Singer/Songwriter

“Working at Range took my music to the next level. Mainly because I no longer had to worry about the quality of my recordings…the folks at Range take care of that so that I can just worry about making the best records possible. There’s no substitute for professionals who know what they’re doing. I owe much of my recent success to the music that I’ve made there.” — Boy Wonder AKA Andre Coles

“Range Recording Studios is a great place to do business! Fun, laid back atmosphere with great gear, mics and rooms to record your music! With an awesome engineer and the support of studio staff, recording at Range is easy and has been a positive and inspiring experience for me! Living down the street from the studio makes it my second home…Thanks Range Recording Studios- you rock!” — Justin Monteleone, Guitarist (Band: Pawnshop Roses)

“A couple of years ago I came into Range to record an EP with my band. It was a great experience, Marc Eimer the manager gave us a tour of the studio, asked about our project and helped us lay out a game plan for how we could finish our project, he was very professional and genuinely interested in what we wanted to accomplish, he then put us in the hands of Brian the sound engineer who was very professional and because he was so proficient and prepared it made the recording process run very smoothly. We were happy with the finished product. I would definitely recommend range to anyone who wanted to have a professional recording done.” — Geoff Hynes (Band: Atason)

“I looked into several different recording studios before deciding to work with Range. From front to back Range is top notch. Marc Eimer, General Manager, helps coordinate the entire process and is so professional and helpful. Brian Ritrovato, Engineer, is one of the best engineers I’ve ever worked with. Brian sat down with me for almost an hour, showed me the studio, and we discussed my goals for the album even prior to my choosing Range. They really take the time to listen to what you want to accomplish at Range instead of putting out cookie cutter type albums. After meeting with Brian he and Marc suggested I speak with Aaron Levinson since I wanted a producer for my second album. Aaron couldn’t have been more perfect for me. Aaron’s knowledge is priceless and he and Brian are a true team in the studio. Aaron gets into your music, gets into the meaning of the songs and gives direction that adds value to the song. They give you a complete package as a team and that shines through in the end product. The atmosphere that Range offers a musician allows for you to be relaxed and have fun while you are recording and that is what makes a record sound alive. Knowing that you have professionals working with you gives you confidence and the quality of that final package is amazing when all is said and done. I constantly get compliments on the improvements of my second album from the sound to the production. I definitely intend on recording my future albums with the team at Range.” — Andrea Nardello, Singer/Songwriter

“When I was searching for the right studio to do my recording at I didn’t expect to be driving from New York to Pennsylvania twice, but it happened because of a list of good traits in a studio called Range Recording Studios. First of all, the people there were the most inviting and friendly that I had talked to on the phone…The sound engineer was patient and enthusiastic, but professional, about my recording. After I was finished recording the sound engineer showed the recording of my vocals to me, asked if I was happy with it, then went right to work. The one thing that I liked the most was the set-up for the customer…I walked out of Range with a copy of the finished product, another time slot, and am extremely happy every time I and others listen to the song. Nice work Range!” — Mike Beeler AKA Mikey B.

“My sessions at Range Recording Studios have always been a great working experience, in a private location, that’s convenient. The engineer, Brian Ritrovato, who I have had the pleasure of working with, adds to one’s creativity with his talent & the patience of a Saint. The rooms are cozy, the lighting good & I have always felt very comfortable to record there. The owners, Dan & Rich & the marketing manager, Marc Eimer, cannot do enough to make an artist feel comfortable and relaxed. This kind of recording atmosphere is of the utmost importance to keep a positive mood, and especially, keep those creative juices flowing. I recommend Range Recording Studios to anyone who is looking for a relaxed, creative atmosphere to make a hit record.” — Eddie Davis, Musician/Entertainer

“I must say that the time my band, Thunderhawk Jackson, spent recording at Range Recording Studios was very enjoyable…First of all, the staff was very friendly and even helped us carry in our very heavy equipment (my amp alone weighs seventy-five pounds) which was a very pleasant surprise. Then, once everything was set up, we began recording immediately. There were no delays or unnecessary periods of waiting, as one might expect while at a recording studio. The recording engineer, Brian, was very professional but at the same time was very friendly answering a multitude of questions we all had about the studio and equipment. He even helped us in the decision making process when we could not decide what to do with a certain part of the song. So in conclusion, I cannot gush enough about my time at Range Recording Studios, it was a very enjoyable experience and I would certainly not hesitate to come back.” — Tyler Newhouse (Band: Thunderhawk Jackson)

“As an artist, it’s always the goal to find a recording studio that can see your dream and help you to realize it on a record.  Range Recording Studios was exactly that.  From the get-go I felt as though Chief Engineer Brian Ritrovato and General Manager Marc Eimer were on the same page with me.  With Brian’s expertise, musical intuition and limitless patience, I was able to produce every single sound just the way I wanted it, and with Marc guiding me through the process, I was able to walk away with a fantastic record that was just as I had envisioned it to be.  Their atmosphere was perfect, and they did everything they could to make sure we were comfortable and relaxed so we could get the best sound possible.  Anybody that wants to make a great record with some great people need not look any further than Range.” — Tim Zimmermann, Musician (Band: Zasz)

“Range Recording Studios has technologically kept up with the changing times, we highly recommend their services. The kids tend to return on Thursday overwhelmed by their accomplishments of the day. This is where the magic starts to take hold, of being involved in the process, seeing the other bands finish their tunes, and accomplishing all they set out to do.” — Greg Wright & Chet Makowski (Summer Music Programs)

“I can not tell you how happy I am with the work you did yesterday on my two songs. They sound 100 times better then I imagined they would, that was a great recording session and I am looking forward to recording more music at Range Entertainment, I’ll ditch the Tascam next time and just bring in my keyboards. The CD sounds great and I will let you know when I am ready to record more music. Thanks for a productive and open minded atmosphere, it was very refreshing to work with an engineer who knew just what I was going for and could make that happen. Thanks.” — David Marino, Musician

“Very cool studio first off!  You guys are great!  I must say that working with Brian was really cool.  Super nice guy.  He was fast and very open minded to everything we wanted to try.  We got a HUGE drum sound, and some really cool vocal effects (a bullet mic through a tube amp cranked up) which we are all really happy with.  We might use the tune for a myspace promo at some point, or keep it in the vault for the B-side TV/Film placement sleeper hit!  Thanks so much for all you guys have done for us!  We’ll stay in touch.  Take it easy fellas!” — Brooke Blaire (Band: East Hundred)

“Range Recording Studios just gave me the greatest recording session of my career! Thanks to their professional staff and brilliant engineer Brian Ritrovato, Kickin’ Bear is well on it’s way to creating an album that we can be truly proud of. The studio fulfills the needs of the modern musician with their state of the art equipment and comfortable working environment. Thanks so much, we look forward to our next session.” — Rob Swift, Guitarist/Vocalist (Band: Kickin’ Bear)

“I have worked with Clay Stiles on several tracks for the LP Stiles “Modest Proposal” recording as well his work with Lisa Cavallaro on her “Rock Star Red” CD .  The effort and support provided by Brian, Mike and the rest of the Range staff on those projects was outstanding.  The recording quality that was achieved on the LP Stiles sessions has drawn nothing but strong accolades. Rock Star Red was Lisa’s fourth CD and none of the earlier recordings come close with regard to recording quality.” — Tom Knauss, Producer/Audio Professional

“Recording at Range was a great experience. The staff was not only professional and accommodating, but also immensely talented. We had a strong feeling from the beginning that we were in good hands, and the final product absolutely reflected that. The warmth and creativity at Range creates the kind of atmosphere that musicians can only hope to be in when they record. It’s not easy to produce a reflection of your very best work, but we were able to do that at Range.” — Andrew Reich (Group: Mask & Wig)

“It’s hard to imagine a more accommodating place to work. Most of my sessions have been late night, intimate affairs. Often without any predictable schedule. Range (Marc Eimer) has always shown a willingness to work with me in any way, to help me accomplish whatever I needed to do. And I’m always grateful for my engineer bro Mike McCarthy’s energy and enthusiasm for my songs!” — Lee Morgan, Singer/Songwriter

“Apollo 76 is a huge fan of Range Recording Studios. After recording our first EP we discerned that Range provided us with the three most essential qualities any studio could possess: 1) a great engineer, 2) a fantastic work environment, and 3) all the right tools necessary in bringing our imaginations to reality. The sound that is Apollo 76 has been somewhat defined not only by our music but the studio in which we record. Lead guitarist and vocalist Erik Sabo puts it this way: “to say we feel at home at Range would be an understatement……..the environment is literally one where you can work hard and then put your feet up on the coffee table without fearing that MOM will yell at you”. Apollo 76 often refers to Range Studios as “their studio”. This is because it is…..and every other artist that has worked there shares the same sentiments.” — Erik Sabo, Musician (Band: Apollo 76)

“We cut our first songs with Brian Ritrovato as the engineer and were very pleased with the results.  We continued our 12 song CD project and are now halfway done finalizing the mixes….. It sounds great!!!  Brian has been very patient with our demands and helpful with suggestions; he has even added some nice percussion to our works.  Marc Eimer has reliably returned communications and has worked hard at scheduling time slots with our convenience in mind.  We are very happy with the staff and comfort level at Range Recording and would highly recommend this studio to others.” — Sandy Pluta, Singer/Songwriter/Dobroist (Band: The Barn Swallows)

“I cannot remember a more exciting nite of music ever for me. To watch that creative process by everyone in the room unfold was a great thrill. I can’t thank you all enough for the opportunity to be a part something like this.” — Jim Sharp, Musician

“We had a great time working with you all. Very happy to have the record done. You guys are the best in town. Things couldn’t be better.” — Band: Bojibian

“The guys at Range took the music in my head and brought it to brutal life. I walked out of there a better musician than when I went in!” — Fetal Matty, Guitarist (Band: The Fetals)

“We are really thankful for the work that you guys have put in for us, and we are happy with the product!” — Mitch Beer, Bassist (Band: BAM!)
