We had a lovely email this evening from Nick Magnus - Keyboard maestro with The Enid and now proud owner of a new StudioWizard designed home studio - shoehorned into a single garage originally built to house a Ford Model T! Nick writes:

"You might have been wondering how the studio build went. I'm happy to say that it's a resounding success. It became functional during mid-October.

I'm absolutely delighted with it - it's exceeding all my expectations. Many happy hours have been spent there - it's the perfect musical man cave where the outside world just disappears.

I'm especially impressed by the sound insulation - even the loudest jumbo jet is totally inaudible from inside (the flight path into Heathrow is barely 1/2 a mile away) and nothing at all escapes to the outside world.

I was concerned that it might take a while to get used to the sound, but everything is well balanced - in fact better than what I was used to in the old studio, particularly the stereo imaging and upper frequencies, which are more clearly defined.

So thank you for making it all possible - I've waited long enough to have a bespoke studio, and it's been well worth the wait!"

You are welcome Nick - glad our efforts have been well appreciated!

It started off actually saying machine learning, but the user protests prompted this, which is hardly reassuring!

Some social media users had threatened to delete their accounts after WeTransfer's terms were updated.

Here's a great opportunity to learn about analogue recording from some of the folk who still work in this medium every day, and it's running in a StudioWizard designed facility, so you know the acoustics will be spot on too!

"Analogue Tape Masterclass

It's great to see the news spreading about our upcoming 'Recording to Tape' masterclass on Saturday, 5th of July 2025.

We're looking forward to welcoming BBC-trained engineer Iain Betson of Reel Resilience to the studio. He and our own Chris Jones will be sharing their extensive knowledge and offering hands-on experience with our vintage MCI 24-track 2” tape machine. The day is designed to demystify the analogue process for producers, engineers, and artists.

Spaces are very limited. You can find more details and book your place via our website. https://www.beckviewstudios.co.uk/ "
