Recording Studio
Studio 1's Control Room is a spacious, acoustically designed and comfortable room to create and work in.
At the centre of operations we have a Calrec Q1, 48 input console (recently recapped) with excellent headroom. We reference through Quested, PMC and Yamaha monitors.
Please take the time to browse our equipment list (including our microphones and outboard) further down this page.
Studio One
Once the Map Room for the Royal Observer Corps, since rebuilt and repurposed as a high-end production and mix down studio.
For recording, Studio 1's control room has tie-lines to Filter Room, Isolation Booths and Echo Chamber.
Filter Room
6.4m x 5.3m
Acoustically treated Live-Room, with tie-lines to Studio 1 and to Isolation Booths.
Our Echo Chamber can be accessed through double glass doors.
Studio Two
Our Project and VoiceOver Studio, with tie-lines and HDMI feeds to Isolation Booth and the White Room. Remote direction for VO's via Source Connect Pro, Zoom or Skype.
Studio 2 offers the added potential to video sessions, using our Infinity Cove or Green Screen as a backdrop.
