studio
'das Studio' and 'das Tonstudio' can both be places where media are produced. 'Studio' is more general: films, TV shows, radio, or music can be made there. 'Tonstudio' is more specific and means a room or facility for sound recordings, such as music, speech, or sound effects. The words can be confused because a recording studio is also a type of studio. When it is clearly about recordings with sound, 'Tonstudio' is more precise. When the type of production is left open, 'Studio' is enough.
