It might be the smallest of our studios, but The Toyshop packs a punch. Throughout the 80s and 90s this studio was one of the busiest programming rooms in town and bands such as The Chemical Brothers started their career here. In 2004 we relocated the studio to its present home, transforming it into a large day-lit suite.

The studio is based around a DDA console with NS10s and Genelec 1031s for monitoring. Recording is via either Protools or Logic Pro, there is a large collection of analogue synths (including Minimoog and Korg MS20) to help with those retro sounds, and there's a great selection of outboard for vocaling or overdubbing.
