ABOUT ESS
Working at Exeter sound studios
When dealing with your music, we strengthen and enhance that which exists already. We listen, take time with pre-production, and make sure that we don’t pull the trigger on tracking sessions until the band is 100% comfy and ready. We then take the time required to ensure that no creative stone is left unturned and that all artistic exploration has been validated. The process is music and art first with solid organization that drives to completion steadily.
ABOUT THE STUDIO
Located in downtown Toronto, Exeter Sound Studios is built for comfort and creation. With a control room, a classic vocal booth and a 12’ x 6 ‘ iso room, we’re set for writing and all manner of overdub tracking.
Our Telefunken 251 vocal mic captures everything from a whisper to a scream and puts you right in the center of the mix. Additionally, a serious collection of instruments is always available for use.
