Control Room

Designed around a world-class monitoring environment powered by cutting edge Genelec main monitors, our control room sounds incredible. It’s both musical and revealing, with 2700 watts providing astonishing headroom and resolution.

An open-plan layout accommodates 6 – 8 artists and guests. Glass doors allow exceptional sight lines and a separate machine room ensures technical facilities remain hidden from the creative process.

Skylights provide natural daylight and an aesthetic abundant in wood, stone and bespoke acoustic furniture create an inspiring sonic environment.

Live Room

A versatile day-lit tracking room suits a variety of applications, ideal for acoustic ensembles, vocals, and strings.

This 50m2 space features 4m vaulted ceilings, solid oak flooring and bespoke poly-cylindrical diffusor installations. Acoustically clear and airy this is a wonderful room to capture acoustic instruments. A drier corner exists for sounds that require more intimacy, and reflectivity can be controlled using large floor coverings.

Stone Room

A Phil Newell designed stone room is the jewel in our crown. Completely original, it features on some of the most iconic recordings of the last thirty years. Explosive, powerful, and punchy, this 40m2 space attracts clients from all over the world.

The room begins with a heavily-overbuilt timber subfloor, aiding low frequency extension. Walls are clad from floor to ceiling in rough-hewn Ibizan granite, with natural diffusion accounting for the explosive character of the room. Integrated bass management is incorporated into the ceiling and an acoustically dry booth adjoins, allowing intimate sounds to be exist alongside the exuberant stone room.

Notable drum sounds include Drown by Bring Me The Horizon and The City by The 1975.
