The Studio
THE STUDIO
Lana Banana Studios house three tracking rooms in an 'L' shape around our dedicated control room, with a large private studio garden also accessible via both the control room and kitchen.
The 'Loud Room', as we like to call it, is tailored for versatility, but excels with all things acoustic & natural - Ideal for when we want to capture fine detail. Our outstanding and reputable drum sound is captured in this very room, along with the likes of vocals, acoustic guitars, & professional voiceover scripts.
For anything 'real', the 'Loud Room' is the ideal choice.
The Piano Room houses our beautiful 1970's Kemble upright piano which delivers a wonderfully deep, warm, & resonant sound, but as well as live piano, this space also caters for the recording of guitar amplifiers and MIDI - Our fully weighted large MIDI piano is always available for client use.
The Jukebox Room features our legendary upright free-play Jukebox, and is generally used for amp/cab isolation when tracking live bands. Be sure to have a flick through the Jukebox playlist when passing through!
Use of all studio rooms is included in our hire rate.
