DROPOUT STUDIOS

About Me


This profile was edited with msprofiles.comEditor
Dropout has been recording bands for the last 4 years. Set up in a basement of an old butter factory in camberwell Saaarf laaandon, it has a great live room with an awesome open, bombastic sound which can easily be tamed to suit your needs. There is tons of space and has fit 14 people recording live before!Basically, we started up recording our own music simply for fun and it proved that we could get excellent results for a fraction of the cost of rip-off studios. it's pretty basic.....there's a big room, a bunch of mics and a tape machine. we built a control room which gives us really good isolation for live monitoring, and can fit at least 4 or 5 people and our ever expanding rack of gear and patch-bay.At the moment, we record onto 16 track 1 inch or 8track 1/2 inch tape. but we have plenty of channels at our disposal on our 42 input ramsa desk.We are also set up for digital recording and we are able to transfer recordings from tape to digital via our interfaces. we have some decent mics and if needs be, there are a couple rooms that can be used to get some separation. but everyone in the live room together has not caused any problems so-far! We have a number of extremely capable engineers at your disposal but you are welcome to bring your own. There is plenty of space to hang out and crash out if need be. We also have an amazing roof space with its very own shed, commanding excellent views of the surrounding neighbourhood!!!
