Affordable recording in the heart of Manchester CIty Centre

Putting down some guitar parts today.. Clean (ish) ambient tones, and I've set this board up so it's nice and easy to switch to stereo, with the @strymonengineering Volante and @neunaberaudio Immerse creating the stereo image at the end of the chain, with the @hudsonelectronicsuk Broadcast set fairly clean before them, and a @fender Jag before that. 57 on the Selmer on the left, @ribbonmics R92 on the Vibrolux on the right. .

Morning all!⠀
Would you be interested in a competition to win a mix of a song you've already recorded?⠀
.⠀
We're thinking about running a competition to have one of your already recorded tracks mixed here at Pinhole. We've run competitions for recording before, but obviously you'd only be able to enter if you're within a certain distance from the studio whereas with this it doesn't matter where you're based as you can send your tracks to be mixed from anywhere in the world.⠀
.⠀
Do you have tracks that need mixing? Is this something that you would enter? If so, let us know and if there's enough interest we'll set something up!⠀
.⠀

Many thanks to @hudsonelectronicsuk for sending out their amazing Broadcast to us. It just arrived today and just getting to grips with it but it's sounding tremendous on the pedalboard. It recreates the input stage of an old console in pedal form with 2 switchable gain stages than can go from nice beefed up cleans to all out gnarly mayhem 🧯🧯. Really looking forward to giving it a spin on drums/vocals/bass/synths etc as well when tracking! .

Testing out the new @wearefocusrite ISA110 console channel strip from @brainworxaudio and it's killer. I usually use either the SSL E or Neve on every mix and it definitely offers something a bit different when those 2 might not be working out. Sounding great on acoustics and vocals today. Lovely addition to the @pluginalliance Brainworx consoles and a nice option to have! .

New release alert!! 🚨🚨🚨 Drive Slow by @whatdomsees aka Dom Major is out today. We recorded and mixed this at Pinhole a while back and it's great to see it out in the world!

Reposted from @whatdomsees (@get_regrann) - Happy release day to this big ball of sound ❤ listen everywhere via link in my bio 😘
Drive Slow is genuinely one of my favourite things I have created. Or at least it was for a long while
I remember I wrote Drive Slow and my previous single, Cigarettes and Beer, on the same day (I think). The way I write is that I smash through songs, and then eventually a good one falls out (probably 1 or 2/10), but that day I landed on a few. Must have been going through a hot streak
The line, 'there's a light on by the stereo, but the music stopped about an hour ago', perfectly captured how I was feeling about that time, empty and insignificant. 'Driving to remember, why you're even here'. Why are we even here? Whats the point of everything? Does anything even matter? I have no fucking idea, but I hope you enjoy the track.
Thank you infinitely to @tomrotheryguitar @pinholesound @matpeters_ and @lightstrikesfilm for making this come alive ❤

Reposted from @chloefoymusic - Without You is out now on all the platforms. All of them. Link in bio. A song about loss and grief I wrote when I lost a big part of my life many years ago. Thanks so much to @pinholesound for helping me realise and reimagine this one in the best way, along with @donrankini @harryfausingsmith @danwiebedrums and @phillipsphillops for being the best musicians and friends. 🖼 by @danwiebephotography - .

We've been having a bit of a rejig in here over the last couple of days. We've just installed a pair @genelec_oy 1032A's in the control room and some new playback monitors in the live room. Loving the way the Genelecs sound in here!

Recording some new tracks with @fragrant__vagrant aka Mr Jack Wakeman. Got the Ball and Biscuit back out on the piano room, hitting the Sansamp and and a dash of chorus and echo and RE501 for a bit of character..

We had Young War in recently tracking his new record, and we managed to get it all down in a day, just like the good old days 😉 Check out this lovely trailer for the upcoming album and documentary, filmed by the excellent @studio_obi

Reposted from @youngwarmusic - A couple of months ago I recorded my 3rd album in a single day @pinholesound.
It’s called ‘Anti-Frantic’ and you’ll be able to hear it and see how it was made very soon. 🎥 by @studio_obi
