Studio
Rob works primarily from his beautiful, high ceilinged studio. There is minimal acoustic treatment, and no glass between producer and artist which is just the way Rob likes it. Working in this way makes communication far more natural and lends a more relaxed atmosphere to sessions, leading to better records.
Rob’s studio is home to a mountain of interesting instruments, vintage microphones and audio gear. From a Sequential Circuits Pro One to an Oberheim drum machine, a modular synthesiser or a vintage tape delay, all the bases are covered.
