Musicians Making a Difference (MMAD) have recently launched a state of the art recording studio in the heart of Gosford.
Thanks to the support of Ms Lucy Wicks MP, the Thyne Reid Foundation, and a successful Pozible crowd-funding campaign, ‘The Studio’ at The Lounge Room is something truly special, according to MMAD’s, Mr Will Small.
“Enter the control room through the enormous custom timber barn-door and take a seat on the signature antique leather lounge.
“You’ll immediately notice the floating ceiling baffles completing the custom look, while adding to the acoustic treatment, designed by professional sound engineers.
“Glance through the beautiful large window into the spacious live band room, complete with an in-house drumkit, upright piano, and plenty of room for full bands to lay down their unique sound live,” Mr Small said.
Mr Small said Sound Engineers and Producers will drool over the set-up, with highlights including the UA Apollo 8p, Audient ASP880, Native Instruments Complete 11 and Complete Kontrol S61, all capable of infinite production possibilities, which will sound beautiful playing back through the Adam A77x monitors.
“Studio sessions will benefit from specialty coffee served direct from The Lounge Room, optional catering packages and NBN Wi-Fi throughout the venue.
“If all that’s not enough to get you excited, here’s the real kicker.
“The Studio is MMAD’s latest addition to a growing suite of social enterprises that seek to empower local creativity while looking out for the most vulnerable young people in our community.
“Any profits made from studio hire will be filtered straight back into the delivery of creative therapy programs that give a voice to disadvantaged young people and help them realise their true potential,” Mr Small continued.
“From the beginning, the vision of this studio was that it would record the sound of both established and emerging artists, successful bands as well as disenfranchised youth reclaiming their self-belief.
“That vision is now a reality and you can be a part of it.
“For the month of March, to celebrate the launch, all studio bookings are eligible to receive 20 per cent off the standard hire rates,” Mr Small concluded.
The Studio is located in The Lounge Room at The MMADHOUSE, 342 Mann St, Gosford.
