About Ryan Pate & The Dub Room Studio
Ryan Pate
Engineer, Musician, and Founder of The Dub Room Studio
Born in Virginia Beach, Ryan started playing guitar at 9 years old. During his teenage years, he wrote music, played and recorded in bands. This musical journey led him to play guitar and drums for opening for acts such as hip hop legends Run DMC, reggae’s Eek-A-Mouse, and funk’s George Clinton Parliament. Over time, he fell in love with the studio equipment that empowered him to produce music.
With next to nothing, Ryan was fueled by the dream to one day open his own studio. He left his career as a subcontractor with secret clearance on submarines and surface ships for the U.S. Government to pursue his dream.
On a leap of faith, Ryan moved to Los Angeles in 2006, where he found what would one day become The Dub Room Studio. With his drive and obsession for high-end recording equipment, Ryan spent the next four years living out of a suitcase and sleeping on couches as every dollar went into outfitting The Dub Room Studio by hand.
While slowly building clientele, Ryan finely tuned his craft in audio engineering, and established a strong reputation. He continued to find success in producing music that include tracks which charted #5 in Austria, Top 20 in Switzerland, Top 30 in Germany, along with climbing 12 charts in Taiwan, China, and over 1300 TV song placements.
Today, Ryan uses his hand-selected tools and incredible experience to grow your direction as an artist and help you find and develop your unique sound.
