Control Room | Number 9 Studio A

We are proud to say the Control Room at Number 9 recording studios is both a treasure chest of vintage audio gear and a toolbox of top quality modern equipment.

It features a variety of high-end microphone pre-amps from Neve and Focusrite, a great choice of processing such as compressors from Urei, Summit Audio, and DBX, and high-end reverb processors from Lexicon, all available for your session.

Furthermore, the Control Room also features a large selection of well-known vintage microphones as well as several modern favourites to use in either our Live Room or Piano Room during your session.

The room has been designed with acoustics in mind to get the most accurate monitoring of your recordings.

It also features pleasing neutral colours and wood finishes, as well as two windows to the outdoors to keep spirits fresh.

We have made the Control Room as relaxing and comfortable as possible, with swivel chairs for the Engineer and Producer, and of course a large leather couch for all to use.

Aside from the design, the Control Room is literally located in the center of action as the Control Room sits between the Live Room and the Piano Room, with wide 3′ x 6′ soundproof windows on either side to maintain complete line of sight during your session.

Last but not least, it is steps away from all of the features of our studio including the kitchenette (with mini-fridge), washrooms, and the upstairs lounge.

We believe you’ll agree that we have one of the most comfortable and productive recording studios in Toronto, and we are ready to have you in for your next session.

Feel free to contact us to arrange a personal tour of the studio and see it for yourself, or check out our virtual tour!
