Q: Do you do walk-in’s?
A: Yes.

Q: What are your rates?
A: Please see our full Rates page here.

Q: What is your cancellation and payment policy?
A: A 50% deposit is required to secure all bookings.

Studio 1 and Studio 10 require a minimum of 5 days’ notice to cancel a booking and receive a refund.
Studios 2–9 require a minimum of 2 days’ notice to cancel a booking and receive a refund.

If a booking is canceled inside the required cancellation notice period:

• The 50% deposit is non-refundable and will be forfeited, and

• The client is still responsible for payment of the remaining 50% balance, resulting in 100% payment for the booked session.

All no-shows will be charged 100% of the session fee.

Bookings made inside the cancellation notice period require payment in full at the time of booking.

We recommend leaving a Floating Deposit of $100. Funkadelic will hold this deposit for future bookings, allowing you to reserve sessions easily. You may request the return of your floating deposit at any time.

Q: How many people can Studio 1 accommodate? 
A: Up to 20 people.

Q: How do I park around Funkadelic?
A: Please see the embedded parking map on our Directions & Parking page or visit www.smoothparking.com. These maps show available parking in the area in real time.

A: Beverages and snacks are permitted, but hot food is not allowed. We have a beverage vending machine available for your convenience. We kindly ask that you keep food and drinks off the equipment and clean up any trash before you leave.

Q: Can we smoke in the studio? 
A: No. Smoking inside any building in New York City is against the law, as stated by the FDNY. This includes vaporizers and e-cigarettes. Violators may be subject to fines.

Utilizing Dual Mono or Dual Stereo modes, the ability to record a second mono or stereo file at -10dB on the same media is supported – even when recording to both SD and USB at the same time.
