STUDIO RECORDING

There are times when a recording studio is just what you need. We have worked in studios of all sizes from Metropolis Studios to a number of smaller private and commercial facilities around the country. We can offer a recording engineer and/or producer for clients who want to hire a specific recording studio, and we can also provide additional equipment to supplement the studio's own inventory.

We have regular access to a studio housed in the University of Cambridge's Centre for Music and Science and connects two acoustically-treated and isolated control rooms with a flexible Recital Room and the acclaimed West Road Concert Hall. The Recital Room can cater to anything from soloists to big bands whilst the Concert Hall, which was built by Sir Leslie Martin and is run as a commercial venue seating 500 people, accommodates a full symphony orchestra. There are two Steinway Model D grand pianos that can be hired and tuned at cost.

The studio is equipped with modern and vintage condenser microphones by AKG, Neumann and DPA, and the rooms are patched together with Van Damme cabling. Hardware includes a Mac Pro, various RME Firefaces and nearfield and midfield monitoring by ATC. Software includes Pro Tools Native, Logic X, Reaper and several soft synth libraries. The larger of the two rooms is spacious enough to track a four-piece band and can be used to overdub vocals, guitars and drums. The smaller room offers 5.0 monitoring capabilities for surround sound mixing and tracking. The two rooms can be used together for voiceovers, interviews, re-amping and more. 

If you are interested in hiring the studio, or to discuss your requirements, please contact us.
