About this space
Keen to start a podcast or record a vocal track, or song - you've found the right spot!
Here at MoveSpace we have the cosiest & supportive, & most affordable recording room in Auckland - centrally located in the heart of Dominion Road.
Our studio is well equipped to make your podcast & recording dreams come true. We’re all set up with four RODE Pod Mics, three comfy chairs (more available on request), 2 x Headphones, Scarlett 2i2 interface / Zoom P4 PodTrak / Rodecaster Pro.
At $35/hr - all you need to bring is your laptop and your great ideas!
We’ve also got WiFi, access to a kitchen, and a range of teas and coffee available for you to use. There’s also plenty of free parking available in the surrounding streets.
The studio is also a great small meeting room - perfect for those one to one sessions you might need. Let us know in your booking request if you would like to book for non studio time.
We’re pretty open to letting you do your thing and move things around as you like them - all we ask is you leave things as you found them and tidy up after your booking.
All the money goes to supporting our creative community, supporting people to do more of what they love, so you can feel good having your booking here too!
More about MoveSpace:
We're a creative community space on Dominion Road.
MoveSpace is (among many things) a co-working space, an events centre, a meeting space and a podcast studio. This can mean there are often lots of things happening at once - we ask you to be mindful of others and the different spaces being used.
We’re also a totally inclusive space and celebrate diversity - we hope this makes you feel safe and we ask that you also keep this in mind when it comes to your booking.
No racism/homophobia/sexism or any sort of unkindness please.
If you are interested in joining our community, becoming a co-worker, making use of our meeting room or launching that podcast you’ve been dreaming of - drop us a line [email protected] and we’d love to hear more!

Feel free to make use of the coffee/tea station and microwave in the hallway! Milks can be found in the fridge and water is available from the filtered water tank
The closest bathroom is immediately to the right of the studio
Once you’re set up and ready to record - don’t forget to turn the “Recording In Session” light on, which is next to the light switch (just so people outside of the studio know it’s in use)

To record you’ll need audio recording software installed on your computer. To connect the recording equipment to your computer you will need to use the Scarlett audio interface (the red box on the table)

Go to "CONTROL PANEL" then "SOUND" and select "Scarlett 2i2" as the playback and recording default device
You are now ready to use the Scarlett audio interface (Note: You may need to select the Scarlett as your interface within your music software preferences)
On a Mac
Plug the red USB cable into your computer.
Go to "System Preferences" then "Sound" and select "Scarlett 2i2" as the input and output device
You are now ready to use the Scarlett audio interface (Note: You may need to select the Scarlett as your interface within your music software preferences)
During your Booking
Use the space as you need to but be mindful it is home to a thriving community. We absolutely encourage curiosity and engagement and understand people will want to explore - please just remember to treat our space with aroha and respect. If anything breaks - don't worry! Just tell us :)
Leaving
All we ask is for you to leave the room as you found it - make sure to return all chairs and tables back to their original places. Don't forget to turn off any heaters, lights etc and wipe down the tables if needed. Any dishes/mugs can be washed in the bathroom sink or the kitchen downstairs.
Please make sure all doors are locked and the building is secure.
