Our studio is full of the latest analog and digital recording equipment, and our tracking room is large enough to accommodate a rock band or a small ensemble and is equipped with a Kawai 5’9″ grand piano. The Music Academy can also provide many professional quality instruments and amps to help you get the sound you’ve been hoping to achieve!
