Copse Corner

Audio Works

We provide production services for music and the spoken word from our recording studios on the edge of Exmoor National Park in Devon, England.

Music Recording & Production

Copse Corner offers professional services covering all aspects of music production; from Pre-Production to Mastering from our recording studio in North Devon, England.

There is no substitute for experience. We have been producing albums, EPs and singles for bands and solo artists for over 20 years, giving us experience across a broad range of genres.

Whether you need a fully produced track to capture the vibe of a band playing together in the studio, or just want to add some drums to your own production we can help.

The comfortable and spacious rooms at our studio provide the perfect working environment for all producers and musicians.

Our Space

There’s nothing quite like real instruments, in a great sounding room, professionally captured by the right equipment.

Capturing the best performance is our top priority. The size of live room allows us the flexibility to capture all artists in one space simultaneously which can bring out the spontaneity in productions with multiple artists.

Great care has been taken in regards to the acoustic design of the room. The sound is tight and controlled in the main recording area, yet opens up and becomes more lively at its edge.

The sound of the room can be manipulated further, increasing or decreasing its perceived size, through the positioning of one or more of our six Portable Isolation Booths from GIK Acoustics.

Hybrid Recording

Your music passes through an array of analogue equipment including discrete console-grade preamps, EQs and compressors before entering the digital realm. This adds the vibe and mojo otherwise missing from digital recordings while retaining all the advantages of modern production.

Control Room

The main control room has been carefully designed to create the perfect listening environment. The room is acoustically isolated from the rest of the building and the floor is suspended on Auralex U-Boats creating a giant bass trap. The acoustic floating floor in conjunction with the corner, ceiling and wall acoustic treatment ensures that your projects will be tracked, mixed and mastered in the ideal environment.
