Jamie Masters shows Mike Exeter around Echo Studios
We recently discovered Echo Studios, a fantastic recording studio outside Buckingham in the UK. Studio owner Jamie Masters met with Grammy winning producer Mike Exeter to show him around.
The studio is really well equipped with ATC monitoring and a great selection of keyboards, amps and a nice selection of choice microphones.
With a small but well featured kitchen and outside space to relax this is a perfect studio for a band or solo artist to spend a few days or much longer without going stir-crazy due to the spacious and open spaces with loads of natural light flooding in.
We highly recommend visiting the studio and meeting Jamie. In the near future we will be adding an interview with him talking about production so please subscribe to our YouTube channel :-)
The large control room can comfortably sit six people and the studio was renovated in 2016 with an addition of a machine room giving the control room more space with the benefit of reducing any noise which can be beneficial as the room can be used as an extra recording space.
The live room is 330 sq ft offering a flexible space to allow a full band to play live using the acoustic screens. A large booth also allows singers etc to have a nicely seperate space when tracking.
