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 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. We also have some stunning pieces of high end outboard.

Mastering

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