Quality sound
for quality
people.

A Roodepoort studio where artists, brands and storytellers come to sound their best — from first take to broadcast-ready master.

The DBS Fingerprint

We leave a mark on
every record we touch.

DBS Studio Services is a multi-service studio built for professional audio — from production to post-production. The space carries a vintage, rich and elegant feel, with a warm, inviting atmosphere that lets real creativity happen.

Founded in 2024 by sound engineer, producer and composer Dulane McCabe (@ Dulie Beats), DBS is the home of quality sound for quality people. Moving from the bedroom to a professional studio is a journey — we make that transition smooth, and give every artist the real studio feel with the comfort they deserve, whatever their starting point.

Our mission — to leave the DBS fingerprint on the industry. Our logo is that fingerprint: no two sounds, and no two sessions, are ever the same.
