Frequently asked questions

What is podcast studio hire?

Podcast studio hire means booking a professionally equipped recording space to produce your podcast or video content. At Podwave Studios, studio hire includes the room, all equipment, and for first time recordings a complimentary producer for the first hour. You show up, have the conversation, and we handle the technical side.

What is included in a studio hire session?

Every session at Podwave Studios includes broadcast quality Shure SM7B microphones, Sony 4K cameras, calibrated broadcast lighting, a Rodecaster Pro 2 audio interface, and a BlackMagic video switcher. Both studios are acoustically treated and temperature controlled. A producer can be added for $150 per hour and is complimentary in your first session.

Can I hire the studio without a producer?

Sessions at Podwave are run with a producer present if requested at booking. For first time clients we strongly recommend having a producer — it makes the session significantly smoother and is included free in your first hour. If you have specific requirements or are an experienced producer wanting a self-directed session, reach out to the team ahead of time to discuss your setup.

How far in advance do I need to book?

Podwave Studios recommends booking at least a week in advance where possible, particularly for sessions with a producer or post-production requirements. Same week bookings can sometimes be accommodated depending on availability. To check what is open, visit the online booking system.

What is the cancellation and rescheduling policy?

Podwave Studios understands that schedules change. For details on the current cancellation and rescheduling policy, visit the booking page or contact the team directly. If you need to move a session, getting in touch as early as possible gives the best chance of securing an alternative time. Contact us at support@podwavestudios.au

Which studio should I choose?

Both Podwave Studios locations offer the same standard of equipment, production, and post-production services. West Leederville suits clients coming from the inner northern suburbs — Subiaco, Leederville, Mount Hawthorn, Wembley, and surrounds. West Perth is closer to the CBD and includes remote guests functionality and live streaming. If you are unsure, the team is happy to help when you book. See West Leederville or West Perth.

How much does podcast studio hire cost in Perth?

Studio hire at Podwave Studios starts from $285 per hour at both the West Perth and West Leederville locations. The minimum booking is one hour. A producer is available for $150 per hour and is complimentary in your first session. Monthly packages are available for clients who record regularly. Book online or contact us to discuss a package.

What is the minimum studio hire time?

The minimum booking at Podwave Studios is one hour. Most clients find that one to two hours covers a standard episode recording comfortably, depending on format and whether post-session setup time is needed. If you are unsure how long your session will take, the team can help you estimate based on your show format when you book.

Can I hire the studio for a one-off session?

Yes. There is no commitment required to hire the studio at Podwave. You can book a single session without signing up for a package. One-off hires are a good way to experience the studio before committing to a regular schedule. Monthly packages are available for clients who want priority access, reduced rates, and a full end-to-end production service. Book a single session here.

Is studio hire suitable for corporate clients?

Yes. Both Podwave Studios locations work regularly with corporate teams, professional services firms, and established businesses. Sessions are handled with discretion and the studio is configured to suit leadership interviews, roundtable discussions, internal communications, and client facing content. If you are bringing a team or have a specific production requirement, contact the studio ahead of time so it can be set up accordingly.

Can I record video as well as audio during my studio hire session?

Yes. Video production is built into every studio hire session at Podwave as standard — not an optional upgrade. Both the West Perth and West Leederville studios are equipped with Sony 4K cameras and broadcast lighting, producing footage suitable for YouTube, Instagram, LinkedIn, and TikTok. Given that YouTube is now the most widely used podcast platform in Australia, recording video from your first session is worth building in from the start.
