Hourly studios open now in Portland

House Rules

One set of rules for every Metrognome location. The first section applies to everyone. The others apply to the kind of studio you use. Questions? Ask your Community Manager, or email [email protected].

Every member

These apply to everyone at every Metrognome location.

Do

  • Report anything that seems off to your Community Manager.
  • Look after your guests. You're responsible for them while they're here.

Don't

  • Play with your door open.
  • Post door codes or building access details anywhere public, or share them with anyone you don't know.
  • Sleep here overnight, or leave a vehicle parked overnight.
  • Smoke anything, anywhere on the property.
  • Light candles or incense, or burn anything else.
  • Tamper with the smoke detectors.
  • Use extension cords. The fire marshal doesn't allow them, to keep everyone safe.
  • Do anything illegal on the property.
  • Throw parties in the common spaces.

Artist Studios

For members with a monthly Artist Studio.

Do

  • Play as loud as you want, any time, day or night.
  • Decorate your studio with lights, tapestries, furniture and anything else you like.
  • Put up posters and stickers, and decorate the Marquee outside your door.
  • Collaborate with other members.
  • Work out practice times with your neighbors.
  • Let your Community Manager inspect your studio for safety at any time.

Don't

  • Paint the walls.
  • Mount anything in the ceiling. Hang things on the OSB boards on the walls.
  • Sublet your studio, or pass your membership or studio access to anyone else.

Hourly Studios

For anyone booking an Hourly Studio.

Do

  • Leave the studio the way you found it. Save a few minutes at the end of your session to put things back for the next band.
  • If you adjust the drum kit, put it and the pedals back to their original position and settings before you leave.
  • Use the PA instructions on the mixer to power on, run and shut down the system.
  • Call or text your Community Manager if any gear gives you trouble, or if you have feedback.

Don't

  • Change the monitor or main settings, or the board routing, without your Community Manager's permission.
