The Court

The Court is by far the biggest live room in the country for the money and even in studios five times the price! It’s has the most incredible natural reverb making it the perfect choice for recording drums, orchestra’s, string quartet’s and our beautiful Baby Grand Piano.

A question asked a lot is “Won’t my drums sound really 80’s rock in here?” and the answer is simply not unless you want them to. We generally use AEA 84’s as room mic’s, which controls how reverb of the room is actually ends up in the final mix. Take them out of the mix and you have an ordinary tight sounding drum kit increase them in the mix and an instant Bonham sound!

Clearly the main benefit of the court is that you can not only record your entire band in one area, you can also invite other areas of your performance into the area to give a much more creative atmosphere - and give you instant control over areas of your perfomance that you may or may not be happy with.

There are a multitude of Baffles that can be placed in and around the studio area that can allow multiple instruments to be played while maintaing the required acoustics to produce that perfect sound.
