Recording Studio
in Cardiff
Looking for recording studio in Cardiff? Cardiff is a short hop across the Severn and one of the most active grassroots scenes in the UK — Clwb Ifor Bach, Tramshed, the BBC Horizons pipeline and a huge Welsh-language songwriting community. Plenty of Cardiff artists find Bristol quicker than tying up Cardiff's busier rooms.
Recording Studio for Cardiff artists
Our Bristol recording room is treated, tuned and stocked with the kind of mic locker you'd rather not travel with — Neumann, AKG, Shure, Coles ribbons — through Neve 1073 and API 500-series pre's into Pro Tools Ultimate. Day rates include the engineer and tea; overnight rates and lock-out weeks are available for album blocks.
Overlap with Clwb Ifor Bach, Tramshed, Welsh Music Prize and BBC Horizons/Radio Cymru rotation acts.
We're 45 minutes across the Severn from our Bristol control room — most Cardiff projects run as a mix of in-person days at the studio and remote revisions, whichever fits your schedule.

FAQ
Do you supply the engineer?
Yes — a producer/engineer is included in every day rate. If you're bringing your own, we'll discount accordingly.
Can we track a full band live?
Yes. Drums, bass, two guitars, keys and a scratch vocal is our standard band setup — booth for the vocal, sightlines for the band.
Is there parking / loading?
Yes — off-street loading right at the door, and daytime parking a short walk away. We'll send full arrival notes on booking.
Do you travel to Cardiff?
For attended sessions we usually host you in Bristol — it's 45 minutes across the Severn — but on-location tracking, foley recces and rehearsal-room production days in Cardiff are all things we do when the project calls for it.
