At USB Productions we aim to establish a professional rehearsal studio in Bristol, including recording, storage and transport facilities. We will promote its use by all groups in the community.

We will offer an environment with a warm, relaxed, clean, yet professional atmosphere conducive to creativity and inspiration that will become a resource hub for the South West, supporting the many spokes of the music and performance arts industries. We want to build a space with the technical support that will nurture artistic talent. We feel the South West should be seen as a place where artistic excellence, particularly in music, is being encouraged to thrive.

The physical space will comprise of a suite of fully-equipped studios including:

We intend to provide safe well-lit parking, including bicycle stands, in a location easily reached by all means of transport. The studios and storage will all be on the ground floor enabling easy movement of stored equipment between studios and vehicles and allowing easy access for people with disabilities. We will also install environmental air-conditioning – essential for the health and comfort of those using the studios.

The equipment and software available will be state-of-the-art so we can offer the high standard facilities professional musicians need and new musicians aspire to. In each room we will provide musical equipment such as drums, amplifiers and keyboards for those who do not own or have access to such equipment; we will also provide ‘wedge’ cabinet floor monitors. This equipment is standard in all professional rehearsal spaces and live music venues. Providing good, industry standard monitoring will allow bands to rehearse as if in a real performance. The recording studio will feature a control/mixing room & live room with a vocal booth. The equipment will be a hybrid of the best vintage equipment and up-to-date technology.
