Studio 13

Studio 13 is a truly unique studio in the heart of West London. It is the centerpiece studio in a creative hub housing some of the UK's top producers. The studio is designed to offer the very best in equipment, sound and workflow whilst maintaining a welcoming and laidback atmosphere.

The control room houses a spectacular Neve VR 72 formerly belonging to the iconic Whitfield St studios. The desk is regularly maintained by the UK's top Neve technician. At your disposal are a vast assortment of the highest quality outboard pre-amps, compressors and FX units recording onto a Protools Ultimate HDX rig with 32 inputs and 48 outputs and a powerful Mac Pro, housed in a separate machine room.

The studio's collection of microphones is outstanding; containing an extensive variety of top quality vintage and modern valve, ribbon, condenser and dynamic mics. Highlights include a pair of Neumann m269s, Flea 47, Lomo 19a19a and a wealth of other studio staples.

The 10.7m x 6.5m live room has been acoustically designed to offer a perfectly neutral sound that lends itself to everything from full band to brass and vocal recordings. Their extensive stores hold a generous selection of rare instruments which include Hammond Organs, an Optigan, a Rhodes Chroma and a Pump Harmonium alongside a wide range of synthesizers, guitars, pianos, amps and pedals.
