RECORDING

Sessions at What Studio range from short 4-hour drum tracking to extended block bookings for album projects. (Deals available)

The live room is HUGE, at 40 x 30 x 30 foot; naturally, as bands love playing together in the same room, it often makes for a better recording. The space itself has a growing reputation for an awesome drum sound.

The live room is linked to an actual church (used as a reverb chamber) and also has Iso spaces for guitar and bass, and more options besides.

Need musicians? For drumming, bass, keys, etc – just ask, available on request.

MASTERING

Using a hybrid approach, What Studio delivers a coherent final master that translates well onto all types of listening systems and environments.
What is ‘Mastering’?
Arguably, it is working with a person you trust, with the appropriate equipment and experience, to ensure the final of your song is of a quality that meets music genre expectations and professional standards. ...It should bang also.

COMPOSITION

Unique yet traditional writing to open or prescribed briefs, delivered on time and on budget. Stephen has written music for BBC TV and Radio, major retail companies in advertising, Pop videos and composed sound design for numerous immersive installations and is equally at home in any of these settings.

DRUM TRACKING

Have you exhausted your buillt in drums sounds? Sick of using 'Ken' in Logic?

Let What Studio track real acoustic drums and make your drums bang.
Perhaps you have some drum takes you love and really want to use, but they lack that commercial finishing touch? Perhaps they need enhancing, editing? Let What Studio ‘tune-up’ your drums.
