The studio was designed by internationally-renowned designer John Sayers. There’s a large control room, a live room, a drum booth and a vocal booth as well as variety of other lounge and shop spaces. Each recording space can be acoustically isolated, but there remains total visibility between all these rooms. The interior layout caters for a broad range of recording concepts: from solo acoustic singers to classical ensembles, choirs, rock bands, orchestral and voice-over work for film or advertising. The studio is full of a wide range of vintage and modern analogue gear and microphones, together with state of the art digital recording hardware and software.
