The studio

Recording

Designed and built from the ground up. Up to 32 tracks, 24-bit, full isolation across four rooms and a vocal booth.

We offer hugely versatile recording, accommodating almost any requirement. The control room and vocal booth sit centrally in the building, linked to all four rehearsal rooms, each acoustically treated and able to double as an isolated recording space.

A long history of recording every genre, as well as audio for broadcast, podcasts and audiobooks. Rehearsing bands can also record their sessions live. Everything tracked here can be mixed and mastered in house.

Built by hand

Designed by the engineer who runs it.

The control room and vocal booth were uniquely designed by Neil Combstock, built from the ground up and drawing on years in studios and mastering houses. Acoustically tuned, comfortable, with mood lighting, a sofa and air conditioning.

Connected to all four rehearsal rooms, you can record up to 32 tracks at 24-bit, tracking separate members in each room while a singer takes the booth. One take, clean isolated channels. Room 1 is big enough for a full band with the mics for a live take.
