Originally a large and high-ceilinged space for drum tracking, the modern studio construction takes full advantage of the preceding room’s acoustics to offer Dean St’s most characterful live space; all this attached to an intimate and warm-sounding control room – featuring the engineer’s choice of either Pro Tools HDX rig, or 24 input UAD system. The studio is packed with industry-standard outboard and backline choices, ideal for seamless production sessions, writing, and vocal tracking – with the scope afforded by the characterful booth for guitar or even solo string overdubs.

In recent years, Studio 2 has been home to post-production company Yellow Boat Music, and the firm’s influence on the rooms is clear: the space is model for tracking to picture, with dual video screens in the booth and control room, and a precise and even control room acoustic – even featuring a Trinnov unit for exacting calibration of the ADAM and NS10 monitoring when required.
