Making your Booking
If you have a studio experiences voucher then you will need to make a booking. You should try to give yourself at least a month in hand for this. When you know the dates you prefer, please telephone the studio on 01691 649044 or email us at email us. When you book, please remember that Recording Studio Experiences are generally at a weekday tariff; if you would like to attend the studio at the weekend there will be a surcharge- please enquire.

Choosing Tracks or Material
The studio needs to know what tracks or material you would like to record around a month ahead of your booking so that we can check availability of the backing tracks, and inform you of the situation. If your tracks are not generally available, we will offer you our extensive catalogue of available tracks, which include both modern classics and a huge variety of titles from all eras 50s to present day. If these are not suitable we will ask either that you bring your own backings, or that we source them and order them for a small charge.
Classical performers are advised that they should make arrangements for accompaniment if they wish to achieve a natural performance. Accompanists are available through the studio at a cost of £20-£30 per hour. Customers' own accompanists are welcome , this is usually the ideal route.
Even if you are going to record your own material, you still need to enter into discussions with the studio about the type of material you wish to record, so that we can ensure we are properly set up with suitable members of staff in attendance on the day in question.
We will send you the map about now.
