“Anybody can buy Pro-Tools, drywall and a lava lamp and say they have a studio. But what really matters is that the place and the people that run it make you feel that you can be yourself and create something meaningful. The Range staff and environment makes you instantly comfortable and ready to dive in and record some great music. I've worked in some of the finest studios in America and they all have two things in common, warmth of spirit and a dedication to excellence. I feel that when I come to Range; you will too.”
- Aaron Luis Levinson, Grammy-Winning Producer
“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. General manager Marc Eimer 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- the coffee pot on, the water cooler full, and the bathrooms always immaculate! What else can i say? I can't wait to track there again.”
- Dylan Mulcahy (Drummer)
“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)
“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, followthrough 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)
“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)
"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)
