A naturally lit and open plan space, Studio Six was built in 2011 with the philosophy of big studio service, without the big studio price tag.
The spacious isolation booth captures recordings of un-tainted vocals, solo instruments, percussion and amps with immediate line of sight to the engineer. The control area is a large 40 square metre space, leaving plenty of room for a band to relax whilst the vocalist is hard at work.
The gear in Studio Six merges the convenience of in-the-box and the benefits of console mixing, with a combination of Mac processing power and Neve summing, insertable around a collection of classic outboard.
