The Studio

Welterweight Sound Studio is located on 2.5 acres of land just outside of town center of New Paltz, NY. It was built to design by owner and producer/engineer, Ryan Dieringer.




 

COMING SOON: WELTERWEIGHT 2.0

Welterweight Sound is in the process of relocating to its new home in Marlborough, NY, just 20 minutes down the road. We are currently underway on construction of a new and improved, 2000 sq ft recording facility, which we hope will become your new home for record-making in the southern Hudson Valley.     

In the meantime, Welterweight’s new “B Room” - based around a ‘70s Los Angeles-made Opamp Labs console - is open for business for your smaller production projects, mixing or mastering project, or audiobook production.

Follow along with our story on instagram. If you feel the studio could be the right fit for your recording project starting Summer of ‘25, don’t hesitate to be in touch. We can’t wait to break the place in, and we’ll be offering the world class studio at introductory rates - so don’t miss out!

Congrats to @luxxsante on the publication of her fantastic memoir. I recorded the audiobook version with Lucy at the studio this winter. I really loved this book - it’s both a moving account of her transition and a chronicle of old New York, th
