SDP TEAM - NOV 2022

Welcome to Stagedoor's NEW Recording Facility.

Rebuilt from the ground up by our new Chief Engineer Mark de Berard , its designed to not only be cutting edge but also feel like a place where you could create your next masterpiece. 

We have spent the last 8 months researching what musicians want in a studio and created a series of products that give the modern musician what they have asked for.

So What did we learn ?

Musicians want to feel safe that their investment is treated with respect and walk away with a recording that is impressive and inspirational.
So what we did was build a new studio with the following...
  •  New Digital Midas M32 Desk, and Analogue Equipment, 
  • A Selection of Vintage and New Microphones
  • Midas Pre Amps
  • A comprehensive recall function for every project.
  • Your project is saved so that we can continue work at any time without having to set it all up again. The Midas Desk will snap back to saved project parameters to continue the flow.
  • An engineer with experience that cares about your project , that is fun to work with , professional , knows his music , can play instruments.  has an outstanding ear for production ideas and is keen to deliver over and above expectations.
  • A Facility that inspires creativity without having to look at the clock.
