High-profile sound
By Chris DeVille
January 3, 2008
The new recording studio located prominently on North High Street in Clintonville is intriguing for several reasons. The most obvious? It’s located prominently on North High Street in Clintonville.
Many studios would forgo such a high-profile space for fear of burglars or to keep rent costs down, but Central City Recording relishes the idea of making its presence felt.
“This music scene, I think we need a billboard spot,” said Andrew Dodson, co-owner of the newly opened studio. Dodson, along with three other twentysomething owners and several friends and business partners, hopes to make Central City the go-to studio for artists with commercial aspirations who still want to maintain artistic credibility.

one of those dudes stopped in to skreened today to say hi. He was really cool. I told him to check out CU, too.
Oh, also it seems these dudes really love columbus and see the potential here as it may manifest in the ‘indie art capital of the world’. They’ve even taken some flack for it.
Gettin Jumped in is the only way in i suppose.
Hmmm, this article makes a good point. I have been looking for a new everything they have in there…

what a lame way to discredit a thread abount a new Columbus resource. If you had a clue how much money it takes to shape a recording studio you might understand that statement better.
made a visit to this spot last weekend for an opening party of sorts. good guys, great studio. this is a great addition to the columbus music scene.
I admit I’m not very good at discrediting threads about new Columbus resources, no.
I had a clue how much money it takes, but that clue was simply “a lot.”
So I took your suggestion in hand, and did a little research and made up a spreadsheet. By my estimation, buying all of the gear listed on their website (not including headphones, amps, cabling, etc.) would cost about $80,920.51. Admittedly I don’t know a lot about fencing stolen goods, so I’ll assume you should cut that amount in half. Add in the copper wiring, desk chairs, etc. and a full ransack would bring in about what, like $45,000?
I’m certain a lot of blood, sweat, and tears went into creating this new recording studio. And I’m sure it’s great news for people who don’t want to feel like they’re recording in Buddy Holly’s friend’s house. But my point is… actually, I’ve honestly forgotten what my point was.
I think the original post was supposed to be a joke, but then why did I do all that research?? Maybe I was trying to say that the Alive was giving people ideas for where to rob, but that doesn’t sound quite right either. I think I just wasted an hour and a half.
Anyway, kudos to recording guys or what have you.

DING DING! we have a winner!
Whats up board? Thanks so much to alive! for the write up, to Walker for hooking us up on CU, and to all of you for checking us out! We are excited to be here and look forward to meeting everyone. Anyone that’s interested in checking the place out, give us a call (262-6260) or stop by between 10am and 4pm, Monday thru Friday. Thanks again!
PS–Walker – let’s get in touch and set up a CU meetup up here sometime. We want to do anything we can to support what you do for Columbus and the scene.
