Studio

A recording studio designed by world-renowned acoustician John Brandt, climate controlled, and acoustically treated to the highest possible standard.

120 m2 of studio facilities offer a highly flexible workflow throughout the studio, including 96 patchable audio lines, a dedicated hearback system, remote recording and the potential for live scoring to film. These facilities allow artists within both the music and film industry to take advantage of our services.

Our growing list of instruments, equipment and gear is maintained to the highest standard.

Control Room

Our hybrid recording and mixing space features a 32-channel SSL Origin analogue desk with outstanding preamplifiers, ATC SCM110ASL PRO monitors and Yamaha NS-10s. Our selection of plugins and outboard gear further provide warm and harmonically-rich driven tones.

Live Room

A naturally lit and inspiring double height live room, features a unique oval ceiling diffuser. The wall interiors include waveguides, membrane traps, splined wall arrays, disforbers and bass traps, creating a balanced mix of absorption and diffusion.

Large and Small Isolation Booths

Dedicated isolation booths afford the option to create separation and a more focused recording session. Both booths have a view into the main live room enhancing a connection when recording as a group. The small booth has a 6 metre ceiling trap helping to enrich the acoustics. The large booth can be used as an additional music production space for writing residencies.

Piano Room

A custom designed piano room houses a fully restored 1904 Bechstein C Grand Piano. This room has been designed to handle the wide frequency range of a piano with plenty of high and low frequency absorption. There is also space for other acoustic instruments, which would benefit from this type of acoustic treatment.
