Keynote
Studios is quickly gaining a reputation for being one of the best recording
facilities in the South due to its welcoming atmosphere and quality of service. Surrounded by a
tranquil lakeside setting,
the studio benefits from a rich array of hi-tech analogue/digital equipment
at the experienced hands of freelance studio engineer Jim Warren
(Radiohead, Peter Gabriel, Nine Inch Nails, Duran Duran), Dave Eringa (Manic Street Preachers, Idlewild, Supergrass),
Adam
Whittaker (Amy Winehouse, Mark Ronson, Starsailor, Kate Nash, The Saw Doctors),
producer/engineer Amit Bajaj (Timbaland, Craig David, Jay Sean, Nitin Sawhey,
Sugababes), engineer Dave Chang (Stampin' Ground, Johnny Truant,
Linear 77, Capdown, Panic Cell, Charger) and engineer Fraser Smith (Shed 7, Ian Brown, The Brights, Kate
Smith, Dog Almighty, KPM).
The
studio is capable of all types of recording with control room, 3 live rooms,
isolation booth, vocal booth and chill out room. The studio is well equipped and
caters for a wide range of musical genres. We are featured in Future Music magazine and Drum and Bass Arena, as well as
affiliation with Oxford's popular Nightshift magazine.
What makes Keynote
Studios unique? The advance of modern technology has allowed many to produce
good music at home. However some things remain impractical such as recording
drums, for which the best sound is produced by using good quality microphones
and acoustically treated rooms. A recording studio is a purpose built
environment for recording and mixing sound. Where Keynote differs is that it
allows a full band to be captured live, with full separation between the
instruments. This is made possible by interconnected live rooms and vocal
booths, and is the only such studio in Reading to offer this facility. Our
48 channel TL Audio Tube Mixing Desk is one of its kind,
combined with digital interface technology provides the best of both worlds -
warm analogue and harsh digital.
