STUDIO A

The center of Urban Sound. Cool ambience and big airy spaces, perfect for big drums, rock bands and acoustic music.
Sweet analogue sounds in extensive classic outboards combined with the power of the digital world.
August 2010 we upgraded to a massive 1.1 ton 48 channel Neve VR Legend console with dynamics, flying faders and total recall.
In combination with skilled producers, custom built floating rooms, a wide variety of classic microphones, outboards and instruments,
makes this one of the very best studio locations in Scandinavia.
