Studio tour: Cosma Music Studio

Tell us about the space

COSMA is a self-built cosy space for music-making and learning, located in Bangalore. The focus is more on creativity and to provide an easy atmosphere for artists who want to build their songs/ideas further or start from scratch. I assist and work with all kinds of independent and emerging artists and provide Production, Mixing and Mastering services. The idea is to help make the process as fun and stress-free as possible and give them a fantastic sound. I also design courses and teach Music Production, Sound Design and Mixing on a one-on-one basis.

Take us through the process of setting it up

First, I made sure the room can be acoustically treated well. Then I moved in with my gear at that time (2015), upgraded my computer, cables and the studio monitors, because the room, and the speakers are the most important things to get right. I tried all options in terms of speaker placement and found the sweetspot of the room. Then with the help of a friend/ carpenter, got all the acoustic panels made, carpeted the floor and sealed the door and windows. Setting up post that was a breeze as I don’t record drums in this space, and I don't run a lot of hardware units.

What are some of the studio essentials you would recommend?
