From Frank Sinatra to the Rolling Stones, Studio 1 has produced some of the most celebrated albums in music history. Spanning over 61,000 cubic feet with a vibrant sound that’s unparalleled, Studio 1 is perfect for any session – from single voice to 70-piece symphonic orchestra. This iconic studio comes complete with a spacious isolation booth and a beautiful Bechstein D-280 Concert Grand Piano.

Frank Sinatra recorded such hits here as “My Way” and “That’s Life”, while Elvis Presley revived his career with his 1968 Comeback Special. Since then, a who’s who list of music royalty have left their mark here, along with famous themes from film and television – including Mission Impossible, M*A*S*H and The Godfather.

Studio 1 features an 80 channel Neve 8078 Console, the largest in the world, which was originally commissioned for Michael Jackson's best-selling album, Thriller. Each room is equipped with a DB Technologies db4496 A/D-D/A Converter and ATC house monitors along with NS10/ProAc speakers and are set up with Pro tools HD.
