Live Rooms

 

The studio has 3 spacious live rooms, live room 1 is 500 square foot and has a vaulted ceiling and natural daylight offering superb and spacious acoustics. Live room 2 is 280 square foot, acoustically treated and also consists of a drum / cab acoustic riser. Live room 3 is a spacious and luxurious vocal and amp isolation room!

 

Control Rooms

 

Our main control room is air conditioned and fully equipped with a large format Toft Audio analogue console complete with it's fantastically musical 80B series 'British' EQ on each channel. We have the very latest Pro Tools HD3 System packed with plugins including SSL, TL Space and more, racks of outboard and quality monitoring.

 

The room has been acoustically designed with guidance from Dr Bruno Fazenda (Salford University Acoustic Research). This has resulted in a neutral and non-fatiguing working environment, your mixes will transpose well anywhere!

 

We have a wide selection of quality microphones including Neumann, Calrec, Rode, Sennheiser & AKG along with a few vintage classics!

 

We use the very best Microphone pre-amps (maintained in tip top condition by Garreth Connor of GJC Designs) to capture the 'complete' sound in the analogue domain.

 

Mastering

 

We have a separate Mastering Suite This room is fully networked to the main control room.

Our engineers and producers have over 40 years of combined experience in the recording industry and have many album and single credits to their names! If you're planning a recording, you're in very good hands with us!
