It would be the same for any building, recording studio or not. Clearly marked exits, smoke detectors etc, etc. Did you not get this from council when submitting plans for DA approval?

Fire safety is not industry specific. All business's dwellings are subject to the same standard. You may be liable for damages if you don't have the necessary procedures.

you have to pay special attention to your airlocks , because they confuse the firedoor access standards

imagine the lights go out and you need to find your way out , everything matters when somebodies life is at stake

Or better still, get an OH&S professional to come in and look over your studio and make recommendations - that's why they are in their jobs!
