Having bags of natural light and an overly generous ceiling height Studio 3 never feels claustrophobic. The booth has enough room for large multi-voice sessions and is versatile for many set ups.

It has recorded many multi voice animations, and is large enough to record feature ADR. At a push a 10 way round table discussion has even been recorded in there! The size is just large enough for Walla group recording & many radio producers like it for recording dramas (although it has not got separate live and dead areas). The almost cavernous control room can accommodate about 10 to 12 people and is large enough for true 'fly on the wall' filming. The booth is also large enough to light and film in - very important for those DVD extras!

Clients & voices often comment on its unpretentious and homely feel having got frustrated by the clinical look of so many studios now days. Other clients say it has a 'creative magic' - who are we to disagree?

Studio Three is equipped to cope with almost anything that you can throw at it. Neumann microphones & Focusrite Green Pre-amps running directly in to the digital desk create a very clean signal path into Protools (Version 7.2). The best post supervisors are kept very happy!

The studio can lock to Beta SP, Digi & MOV files as well as most other formats by arrangement - all displayed on a beautiful 50" plasma in the control room and a 42" plasma in the booth . The studio is also equipped with a Colin Broad ADR cueing system and has a fantastic Eventide Harmoniser as well as a great range of plug ins for Protools. Naturally OMFi's can be taken in and complicated repair work is one of Dave's fortes.
       

Over the last 8 years Dave has developed a very good reputation and a loyal following in the animation industry, with literally hundreds of hours of award winning material coming out of the studio. Generally at least one show he's recorded can be seen everyday on British TV. Dave also provides casting and voice direction services. If you have an audio related problem he can normally solve it - or knows someone who can! If it's either a simple straight voice record or a last minute ADR session via ISDN to the States or a full dub for a series - you can be assured that Dave and Studio 3 will provide not only a superb product but a pleasant journey arriving at it.

Thanks to Keith Whickam (voice extraordinaire) for some of the snaps.
