Noise Machines Studio A Control Room

Noise Machines is a two studio recording complex based in Newtown. We occupy the same building as Happy Mag and produce and record all their live sessions. Studio A is a multi room facility with a fully loaded API 2448 console. While Studio B is a producer style single room space.

Over the years Noise Machines has amassed a delightful collection of microphones, pre-amps, instruments, synths and pedals making our collections of toys the source of joy and envy for musician friends who visit. If you’d like to visit the space for a walk through please get in touch.

At the same time, more musicians are combining that setup with time in professional studios rather than choosing one or the other. This hybrid…

    There was a time when capturing room sound was not a choice. Early Elvis recordings at Sun Studio were cut with musicians playing together in one space. Drums, guitar amps, and vocals bled into each other because they had to. The room became part of the record. That approach never fully disappeared, but for a…

  • How Long Does It Actually Take to Record a Song?

    It’s one of the most common questions artists ask before booking time: how long does it take to record a song? The honest answer is that it depends. A simple acoustic track with one vocal can come together in a few hours. A full band arrangement with layered parts might take a full day or…

  • Why Some Sessions Feel Easy and Others Don’t

    Some recording sessions move along without much trouble. You get sounds quickly, performances feel natural, and decisions tend to stick. Other sessions can feel harder than they need to be. You spend more time stopping and starting, changing things that were already working, or going back over parts that felt fine the first time. That…
