BANDSPACE
DESCRIPTION
Sensible Music in London primarily features a large 1000sq ft Studio 4 dedicated to full touring production rehearsals, plus several multi-use rooms that function as production/rehearsal spaces. The facility includes other spaces such as Studio 3 (a 3.6m x 4.8m space used for rehearsal, production, and programming, featuring an adjoining drum booth), and Studio 1, 2, and 6 which are often used for specialised recording, pre-production and rehearsals for smaller, long-term rehearsal needs. These rooms are supported by on-site backline hire (amps, drums, synths).
