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.
