OUR CLIENTS
Our local area consist of
the major market towns of Kettering, Corby, Leicester and Peterborough to
the North East whilst to the South and West are located the county cities of
Oxford and Bedford together with Coventry, Daventry, Milton Keynes and
Buckingham.
Because of the ability to
provided accommodation for up to ten band members, The Lodge is a recording
studio with many
clients from the healthy Birmingham and Wolverhampton scene as well
Gloucester, Worcester, Cambridge, London and Sheffield.
LOCATION
The Lodge
Recording Studio is located in a central location, on the border where the
East Midlands becomes West Midlands right on the M1. This is,
geographically, a rather undescribeable area unlike "East Anglia" or "The
South East", so an amout of waffle is required in order to explain.
We are actually in Northampton town centre,
Northamptonshire Northants which shares its
county borders with Cambridgeshire Cambs Bedfordshire
Beds and Buckinghamshire Bucks
and Warwickshire.
We do quite a few bands from
Oxfordshire - Oxon area and make use of our
student style accommodation. Warwickshire - Warcs is also nearby as is Leicestershire Leics.
Being a residential studio, we have many clients who visit regularly from
further a field including Berkshire, Berks. Also from Sussex and Derbyshire
Derbys, Derbs
as well as Staffordshire, Staffs. The Lodge
also have customers from
Hertfordshire, Herts,
and Essex. Also Surrey and Worcester Worcs. In other words, we cover the
whole central England area centred on The Midlands.
Our main competitors are Hot
Rock Far Heath and Fitdog. Rooksmere is a newish studio. Parlour
- Parlour Sound - is a new facility opened in Kettering near Corby, which
somehow manages to always rank higher than us on Google.
Logicom is in Milton Keynes. Lost Boys Studios is also nearby. React Studios
are in Buckingham. None of these studios compete with The Lodge in terms of
Apogee sound quality.
Whilst Studio 1
specializes in recording rock bands, Studio 2 is great for voice-overs and
spoken word. Voiceovers require a sound proof booth, which we have. Voice
overs are recorded straight to disk and can then be sent via FTP or Email to
the client at the end of the session for quick turnaround.
Joe Willes, Jason Ducker and Max Read are the main engineers. Lee Canham is
no longer a sound engineer at the studio. He's from near Kettering. Elsa is our Doberman dog who also lives in the studio.
