Podcast Studio Hire in Madrid

Record your video podcast on a real stage, in Madrid. At The Black Cactus Studios you have 300 m² with two cycloramas, full control of the light and a space insulated from street noise, 25 minutes from the centre and with no ZBE restrictions.

A podcast set built to your measure

We do not work with a fixed set: we build it to match the tone of your show. A white infinity background for a clean brand look, a black cyclorama for something more intimate, or a custom colour with RGB LED light so your podcast’s identity shows from the first second. Two, three or five people can sit down without the camera running out of room.

• White cyclorama, 8 × 7.5 m for a seamless infinity background.
• Black cyclorama for a cinematic, high-contrast look.
• RGB LED light: tint the background your brand colour instantly.
• Motorised 6 × 6 m truss to hang lights with no stands in shot.
• Climate control throughout the building: no fans creeping into the audio.
• Multi-purpose office as a green room, control room or make-up area.

Multicamera, streaming and live shows

The stage is set up for multicamera recording and for going out live. We have power to spare, wifi, room for the gallery position and drive-in access to unload gear right at the set. If you need cameras, lenses, lighting or sound, you hire them here: we have our own audiovisual equipment catalogue with more than 130 items.

Why record here and not in a booth

A podcast booth gives you audio, but it locks you into a single shot and a single background. A stage gives you picture: you can change background between episodes, bring in four cameras, shoot the vertical cut-downs for social the same day and record the show’s promo without moving. And if your podcast grows, the space grows with it.

Rates

Every show is quoted individually, depending on running time, the set-up you need and the services you use. The minimum booking is 3 hours. See the studio rates or tell us about your show and we will put together a fixed quote.

Frequently asked questions

Is the stage soundproofed?

It is an open-plan industrial building, insulated from street and traffic noise. It is not a radio booth: for clean voice you work with close microphones, as in any professional video podcast.

How many people fit on the set?

Two to six seated participants is no problem, plus the crew. It is 300 m², so the limit is set by your production, not by the space.

Can I leave the set up between recordings?

If you book consecutive days, yes. Tell us when you book and we will organise it.

Does it include cameras and microphones?

The hire covers the space, the electricity and the parking. Cameras, lenses, lighting, sound and technicians are quoted separately and we set them up for you.

Is there parking and loading access?

Yes: drive-in access right to the set, parking at the door and no ZBE restrictions at all. We are in Leganés, 25 minutes from the centre of Madrid.
