We have several electric guitars and basses available to use, an Orange bass amp, a Sound City valve guitar amp and a Roland Jazz Chorus.  Digital Recording is via Cubase 5 / SX3, and for editing and CD authoring, Sony Soundforge 9 and CD Architect. Video Editing and authoring is via Sony Vegas 8.0 and DVD Architect. Monitoring is provided by Mackie HR624’s, KEF Hi-Fi reference speakers and Beyer DT100 Headphones.
