In close partnership with ProTools HD3, equipped with 48 AD/DA converters, as well as a permanent setup for surround sound, Studio A is equipped with some of the finest tools for music production and multi-channel mixing for video and film.
Studio A is 126 sqm and includes a control room, studio 1 and studio 2. Studio 1 is 40 sqm and the main room which houses a beautiful totally restored Bechstein grand piano from the first half of the 1900's, and a Hammond A100 with Leslie 122. Studio 1 has several acoustic sections that range from soft to hard and gives the opportunity of exciting acoustic combinations.
Studio 2 is 14 sqm and primary a vocal room with a more dry sound and is perfect for recording of soloists where you want a tight and close sound.
In addition to the studios, there are two apartments with kitchen facilities and living room, so you have the opportunity to have a "chill-out” zone away from the studios.
