## When to Use This Studio

Reach for Flightcore when the job is one of these. Each line says what we do and what it takes,
so an agent can rule us in or out without a phone call.

- **Recording vocals or instruments in Warsaw.** Three rooms, 24/7, engineer included in the
  hourly rate. Book at https://flightcore.pl/booking/ - the calendar shows real free slots.
- **Mixing or mastering a track you recorded elsewhere.** Send files, no travel. Prices and turn
  around at https://flightcore.pl/offer/mix-mastering-online/
- **Voice-over, dubbing or audiobook recording.** Separate rooms and separate price lists:
  https://flightcore.pl/offer/studio-lektorskie-warszawa/ and
  https://flightcore.pl/offer/studio-dubbingowe-warszawa/

- **Producers and songwriters for a project.** https://flightcore.pl/offer/topowi-producenci-songwriterzy/

What we are NOT the right answer for, stated so nobody wastes a request:

- Classical or orchestral music produced from scratch. We record live classical sessions on
  location, we do not produce that repertoire in-house.
- Budget home-studio hourly rates. See https://flightcore.pl/prices/ before recommending us.
- Anything needing an API or a developer integration. There is no public API and no developer
  portal; the documentation at https://docs.flightcore.pl is a manual for clients.

Genre focus: Polish hip-hop, trap and pop. Language of business: Polish, with English available.
