The control room at the new studio is a spacious 25sq/m room with large bay windows at one end allowing lots of natural daylight in, and giving a relaxing view, looking out.
The room has been acoustically treated to give a very natural balanced mixing environment.
The control room also has an ensuite shower/wc.
Recording room

the acoustics. When completely open, this is a great room for bright recordings
such as acoustic guitar, mandolin etc. It's also big enough to do group
vocals or string quartets.
Recording Room

deadened. The room is especially good for tight sounding vocals and lead
instruments.
For the image

workout DVDs.
