Making Tracks Recording Studio

Aside from being the home of Young Sounds, Making Tracks Recording Studio is also available for hire. It is particularly suited to small scale projects (the type of jobs larger studios tend not to be interested in), such as voice-tapes, single-song demos, cassette to CD back-up and the like. It is also ideally suited to MIDI-orientated music production.
