Human Studios

Criterion Acoustics transformed Human Worldwide's New York City studio into a versatile, dual-purpose creative environment that supports both critical mixing and live recording within a single, highly optimized space. Developed to maximize functionality in a compact urban footprint, the design balances precision acoustics with the flexibility required for modern music production.

Our team provided comprehensive acoustical consulting and design services, including room acoustics, sound isolation, and mechanical noise control. Through carefully engineered absorptive and reflective surfaces, custom architectural treatments, and low-noise HVAC solutions, the studio delivers exceptional acoustic accuracy while maintaining the natural liveliness needed for recording instruments. The result is a sophisticated production environment that enhances creative workflow, technical performance, and the overall client experience.
