The Studio
Main Room
Based around a Trident Fleximix console this space offers
Room two
This space can be configured in a number of ways: as a traditional live room (with lines feeding the Main Room) as well as a self-contained production space able to operate independently from the Main Room.
Room three
This room works well for recording instruments when a controlled, (dry) acoustic is needed. We use this space as an amp room, drum booth and vocal booth.
