Some of our biggest challenges are simply keeping up with the rising prices of running a facility like ours while budgets from our clients remain the same. We’ve always wanted to provide the best possible service we can, and a huge part of that is the care and attention that we’ve tried to keep in the place. It’s definitely a labour of love! I’ve worked with the old Lynx Aurora’s for years and made a few records with them and always thought they were decent quality, but when I tried out the Aurora (n) I was absolutely blown away. The stereo image, depth and speed grabbed me instantly.

The mic pre/EQ modules are based on the legendary 1081, and are considered by many to be one of the finest modules that Neve ever made. It has a really smooth and musical EQ, which just sounds fantastic. People love what they get from it. Some of the better known names would be Kate Bush, Stormzy, Craig David, Clean Bandit, FKA Twigs and Liam Gallagher. Liam’s album was his debut record, and it went straight in at Number 1! We were really proud of that one. That’s how Snap Studio was born. In fact, that same album recording project that inspired the earliest version of Snap Studio took me all the way to the GRAMMY Awards Red Carpet. With the right tools and inspiration, the sky is the limit! Please let us know if the personal information that we hold about you needs to be corrected or updated. In an increasingly corporate, money-driven music business, Snap certainly proves that a small, independent venture can succeed by virtue of the skills of those involved and their belief and passion rather than money and marketing muscle, and that’s something we’re really proud of. What about the industry climate? Has this affected you and if so how?

Building a high‑end recording studio has always been an ambitious goal. A studio is a complex organism, and substantial resources are needed to conceive a workspace which can keep up with the most critical and diverse of demands. It does not come as a surprise that many of the sound temples we have been showing in our Studio File series so far hail from a different and long‑gone era, when recording studios were either state owned or built by one of the few major record companies. These classic studios still thrive on their legendary names and their established facilities, but it doesn't happen too often that they are joined by new recording venues on the same scale and level of ambition.

Comfortable. Compact. Portable.

The 360-degree Acoustic Isolation Shield has a 6'8" (203cm) internal height (6'11" external height), with a footprint of 33"x33" (84cm), giving plenty of space in case you get a little pumped up while recording. It uses proper acoustic pads for the walls, which are twice as heavy as moving blankets and are designed specifically for sound absorption, featuring an 80% noise-reduction coefficient to cancel reverb. The best part? You can lay down pro vocals without the hassle or added expense of renting studio time. There has already been so many great records that have come out of the studio, and we want that to continue for as long as possible! At a time when so many other London studios were closing down, we wanted to build somewhere that offered uncompromising quality and facilities, but with traditional values and a unique, creative vibe, all at an affordable price.
