Rooms and hours.
Recording studio session booking with engineers
Recording studios: sessions booked, engineers assigned. Rooms, engineers and deposits.
Sessions booked by message, engineers juggled and stems sent by transfer link. We build booking and delivery systems for recording studios.
Looking for recording studio booking software?
Studios sell time in rooms with engineers. We build booking systems with deposits and file delivery.
Wollopit builds booking systems, client proofing, project portals and portfolio websites for recording studios around how you actually create and deliver. We connect the tools you already use, replace the ones holding you back and look after the lot on our own servers, so you can spend more time on the work and less on the admin.

Everything under one roof
Software, websites and systems for recording studios.
Whether you're starting fresh or upgrading what you've got, it's one team from the first sketch to the support call.
Custom software for recording studios
Built around how your recording studio actually runs: session booking, engineer assignment and the admin in between, in one system you own.
Websites for recording studios
Fast, hand-built websites that rank for the searches your customers make and turn visits into enquiries, bookings or orders.
Recording studio system upgrades
Running on spreadsheets, old software or a platform you've outgrown? We move your data across and upgrade in stages so the business never stops.
Apps and portals for recording studios
Deposits and rehearsal rooms: customer and staff portals that work on any phone without an app store.

06How we work
The process
Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.
We get properly below the surface of your recording studio: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.
- 01
Think
We spend time with the people doing the work, see where the hours go and work out what's actually slowing you down.
- 02
Archi-tech
We plan it before writing code: your data, customers, payments, the tools you keep, hosting and cost.
- 03
Build
Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the most painful bit first, so you get a win quickly.
- 04
Look after
We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.
07Questions
FAQ
Things recording studios ask us.
Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.
Can bands book rehearsal rooms by the hour?
Yes. Rehearsal rooms can be hired hourly online.
How much does it cost?
It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand your recording studio. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.
Can clients approve work online?
Yes. Clients can review drafts, leave comments, approve and pay in one place instead of a dozen emails.
Will our portfolio load fast?
Yes. We hand-build portfolio sites so big images and video load quickly on phones without losing quality.
Who looks after it once it's built?
We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.
We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?
Usually, yes. Most recording studios we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
