    About Velvet Square Studio

    Spacious and comfy studio with great vibes, professional equipment, amazing mics, analog synthesizers and vintage instruments. Perfect for music recording, songwriting, production, beat-making, content creation, remote recording and podcasts. Our booth fits a whole drum kit. We have an amazing Gretsch kit already set up with mics and ready to go. Legendary Neumann U87 and Shure SM7B microphones with Avalon and Universal Audio preamps, ready to record pristine vocals. Use our M4 Mac or bring your own laptop and connect to our incredible Adam speaker system and our 4 displays. WHAT MAKES THIS ROOM DIFFERENT We run a full Adam 5.1 monitoring system (3x S3A, 2x A7X, Sub12) through an SPL 2038 surround controller, and there's a display inside the booth for ADR and self-recording. Or you can use the speakers to work in stereo, plus our 12 inch Adam sub. BRING YOUR LAPTOP AND PLUG IN An SSL 18 interface sits ready on the desk over USB-C. 18 in, 20 out, with SSL 4K preamps.
