The Sound Company Studio Hire London

Our Studios are extremely versatile - designed from experience of the needs of clients, suitable for Broadcast TV & Radio, Corporate, Animation, Multimedia, Web - single or double voice recording - wild or to picture, ISDN, booth ADR, live multibroadcasts.

Studio 1

Voice recording and audio post-production.

Studio 2

Voice recording and audio post-production. It's on the lower-ground floor. There's a door to a small outside area - for fresh air or to have a smoke.

Studio 3

Clients & voices often comment that Studio 3 is unpretentious and has a homely feel - being disillusioned by the clinical look and ambience of so many studios currently. Other clients say it has a 'creative magic' - who are we to disagree?

The voice booth has enough room for large multi-voice sessions and group wallah. The booth is also large enough to light and film in - very important for those DVD extras. The almost cavernous control room can accommodate about 10 to 12 people and is large enough for true 'fly on the wall' filming. Over the past 10 years Dave Peacock (Studio Manager) has found himself specialising in animation dialogue recording & mixing - becoming the engineer of choice (as well as the preferred voice director) of many of the top animation companies throughout the world.

Studio 4

It's an excellent studio for when there is a heavy workload. The voice booth is normally set-up for two voice artists across a hexagonal acoustic table. The control room seats 3-4 clients.

Studio 5

Is on the top floor with a separate producer's desk, and lots of natural light, roundtable multi-voice projects, and is home to many BBC Radio 4 programmes and the Monocle Weekly podcast. The voice booth is normally set-up for four presenters/voice artists. The studio runs SADiE as well as Pro Tools.
Broadcast TV & Radio, Corporate, Animation, Multimedia, Web Podcasts - wild or to MOV/QT, ISDN, booth ADR, live multibroadcasts.

Studio 6

It's on a mezzanine floor with a producer's desk, and lots of natural light. Via a little conservatory, there is access to a smoking area and roof garden. The voice booth will accommodate 2 voices.

Adjoining this studio is a 2-sofa lobby area with a cam feed to/from the voice booth & control room (or Pro Tools picture video feed) with talkback and audio monitoring. Very useful as an overflow, an office base during long sessions, or somewhere to put chattering clients. Bags of daylight via large roof windows. Wireless internet.

Studio 7
Is our smallest studio - bijou indeed - though we have seen much smaller voice booths around! It's very fine for a single voice or ISDN link-up - unattended; produced/directed via by Skype or normal Phone patch; or with a single producer/director attending. Voice quality is excellent of course. The voice booth adjoins the control room - visual communication is via two-way cams which can be routed to Skype video. The studio is on the Ground Floor behind our TV Studio.

TV Studio
In what was once the Advision music studio is our 750 sq ft 4-waller tv/video studio.

Used for all sorts of corporate shoots for example NSPCC; BBC/Independents talking-heads such Soccer Addicts; interviews for DVD extras - Christopher Lee for Creeping Flesh & Night of The Big Heat...

As a Media Training Facility, if required we can provide an operator, camera, lights and DVD recording equipment. Plus a flip chart, playback facilities & lots of sofas.
