services


Recording
We have created an intimate and relaxing recording environment allowing you to get the absolute best out of your sound from our fully acoustically treated studio which has been built to provide flexibility and to offer as many recording solutions as possible.

Production
With impressive technical know-how as well as a vast knowledge of the creative side of the production process, the audio engineers and producers at Qton Studios have a wealth of experience within the music industry working with notable artists in the mainstream including  Paul McCartney, Leona Lewis, Beverley knight and the Honeyz to name but a few and on films such as Cold Mountain and Harry Potter.

Mixing
All the hard work that goes into producing a strong EP/Album can be compromised in the mixing process if key areas in that process are neglected. At Qton we have experienced engineers that truly understand music and sound and who have the technical know-how as well as acute listening skills. Mixing in our fully acoustically treated control room means that the sound that is being mixed is the true representation of the EP/Album and not a representation that has negative frequency influences from a semi or non-acoustically treated control room.

Music Composition
We can create songs and music tailored to the specific genre of the artiste as well as instrumentation and arrangement to ensure peak definition of your sound recording.

Vocal Production
When you are in the vocal booth with all eyes on you to deliver the perfect vocal do you feel ready? Or do you need support and guidance? Vocal production means having your own vocal coach in the studio environment - someone to guide you to achieve your maximum vocal potential through the use of specific techniques, someone that can identify the natural texture of your voice and vocal ‘sweet spot’ and advise on microphone techniques.

Musicians
Even if you are a band, an instrumental solo can enhance the overall feel of a track and give it that extra finish and quality. Qton has a large roster of session musicians that range from the standard keyboards, bass, drums and guitar to tablas and the harp from Andy Gangadean [Drummer - Spice Girls], Paul Bruce [Bass - Beverley Knight] to Tony Remy [Guitar - Herbie Hancock] Carl Vandenbosche [Percussion -  Sade/ Incognito/ Maxwell]

Mastering
Mastering is the final step in the overall production process which enables your EP/Album to be played in any medium without misrepresenting the true intention of the sound recording.

Production Dialogue Editing
Locating the proper take from the recorded production audio, checking sync (and eliminating extraneous noise) ensures a smooth edit and mix.

ADR
Noisy locations, special effects and dialogue changes are a major part of any TV/ Film production. Wind noise, aircraft, traffic & rain can all be eliminated by good ADR. Using the Automated process of Dialogue Replacement ensures perfect sound [dialogue] to picture quality.

Voiceovers
Whether it’s just one line or whole scripts, we get the best performance from your artist.

Sound Design
We have a terabyte of samples and sound effects. So whether it’s creating a single sound effect or designing the soundscape for a film, we  create and produce a sound experience to enhance and complement the director’s vision.

Foley
We utilise many different mic techniques and outboard pieces of equipment to produce our foley.

Music Composition
We write and produce audio and music for film and TV. Our collection of composers and producers have extensive experience in all aspects of music, performance and composition; experience which covers a diverse range of musical styles.

Music Editing
Editing music is a key component of audio post production and contributes to the success of any project.

Mixing
We mix for TV, film and commercials using the latest Digidesign Protools HD3 7.4. Our fully acoustically treated studio ensures perfect balance and peak definition of sound.

Remastering
We remove imperfections on master tapes or other source recordings. Using state of the art technology combined with a wealth of experience we will restore recordings to the best possible sound quality ensuring future enjoyment and listening pleasure for future generations.
