Well hello there, Vlad here, welcome to my studio. Welcome to CatPick Studios — a guitar and home studio gear channel dedicated to real-world reviews, tone demos, music production, and recording workflow from a compact home studio environment. I test and review electric guitars, bass guitars, guitar pedals, amp modelers, audio interfaces, studio microphones, plugins, monitoring solutions, and home recording equipment used by modern musicians and content creators. I write, record, mix, and produce my own original music in my tiny studio using Logic Pro, sharing practical recording techniques, mixing approaches, home studio setup tips, and honest gear insights to help musicians achieve professional sound at home. If you love guitar tone, home recording, studio gear, and music production, subscribe and join me inside the studio.
