Recording Studio Tour around new Beckview Studio - Full Studio Tour

Studio owner and recording engineer Chris Jones takes us on an in depth studio tour around this new(ish) and lovely residential recording studio, just off the coast in North Yorkshire.

We have visited hundreds of studios - it's always nice to find a studio that's been so well thought out offering a huge number of instruments and back line. Guitars are hung all over the walls, several drum kits are neatly racked up together with loads of keyboards, amps and pretty much anything else you might need if the tour bus got stolen!

This is a studio designed for bands and live performances with a range of spaces to spread out and record or capture different ambiences. From the amazing Safe Booth to the main booth and spacious main studio are the options are excellent - the control room is a very comfortable size plus anyone that is bored of sitting at the back can go to their green/orange room to hang out - able to watch and listen to the session. Outside there's loads of relaxation space too - plus the seaside is just a few minutes away!

At the heart of the studio, you'll spot an American classic mixing desk from MCI. The desk has, as you'd expect, had a few modifications with several channels being 'beefed up' with Jensen transformers etc and offering a more 'API sound' as Chris describes. Coupled with the desk and Pro Tools rig is a classic MCI JH24 tape machine, offering 24 tracks of analogue recording/playback. The tape machine is popular and see's a lot of use.

On the studio tour round we brought in a few people who work at the studio to give some of their thoughts, so a big thanks to Jim Taylor and Charlie Hunter for their time - also, we would like to thank Delta Charlie Drones for their amazing footage! https://www.deltacharliedrones.co.uk

We didn't manage to film all of the studio accommodation but follow the link to visit their site to see the pictures - this is a fully residential studio. https://www.beckviewstudios.co.uk

We are looking forward to visiting to record some additional features here in the near future and then we will include a rundown of the excellent microphones available - that footage didn't make it to the final edit here.

We highly recommend Beckview Studios, give them a call and pop over to check them out!!
