Recording Studios

Our studios are available for commercial hire when not in use for teaching.

Please check the recording studio information pages for details of the equipment provided in each space. Costs also include building opening and basic security, plus a member of staff for equipment sign-out and to comply with our safety policies.

If booking Studio 6, the rate does not include access to the Band Room, which must be organised separately.

Pianos are tuned regularly throughout the year, but there is no guarantee of tuning condition. We can arrange tunings in advance of your session at a cost of £50 per tuning.

Terms

Hire charges do not include an engineer. If you have not used our studios before, one hour of engineer time will be charged in your first booking for orientation and initial support. It is at the discretion of our engineer whether the hiring technical team meet the expected standards for unaccompanied use of the studios. Your booking may be cancelled or access to equipment restricted, without refund, if it is determined that the studios cannot be used without support.

All bookings must comply with our safety policies and are dependent upon the advanced submission and approval of risk assessment documentation. Our facility risk assessments are provided on the individual recording studio information pages and can be referenced in your own submission.
