No need to lug your kit (unless you want to). The Sound Mill offers a well-tuned Yamaha all-birch drum kit which is always mic’ed up and ready to rock, along with a selection of cymbals and snares. The live room features a stone wall kick drum diffuser feature, ample bass trapping, and scientifically tuned absorbtion, all making the room a joy to make noise in!

Need to further isolate the drums from other players? Our live room can literally be split in two via glass doors if you’d like.

Every room in The Sound Mill is equipped with custom-made snakes and wall panels, allowing mics and headphones to be plugged right into the wall. No cables running everywhere…clean, tidy, and stress-free.

Every fixture and finish in The Sound Mill was custom built for a purpose. The don’t just look good (and they do!) – they also serve an acoustic purpose. Form meets function.

Close those doors and split the live room in two. Also, note the near-silent air conditioning/heating/dehumidifying unit on the wall, ensuring a perfect temperature during any season of the year.

This room is designed to be a little more “dead” sounding than the live room, making it ideal for clean-but-lively-sounding vocals. It’s also perfect for upright bass, electric guitar, fiddle, and lots more.

Jon is a collector of vintage CASIO keyboards, including this lovely old early 80’s organ with volume pedal. Ask nicely and you can use one on your next album! 🙂

Nothing beats the magic of a real vintage tonewheel organ. The M3 is the little brother of the legendary B3 – exact same sound, slightly smaller package. Features the original tubes in the amp!
