Inside the studio

Longwave Studio has been in the old telephone exchange since 2015. Two live rooms, an edit suite, and four people who have made more than fourteen hundred episodes between them. Some of those shows are ours. Most belong to someone else.

The rooms

Studio A seats four with treated walls and a separate control room. Studio B seats two and is set up for video.

How we work

An engineer is in the chair for every session. Multitracks go out the same evening, whether you booked the edit or not.

Came back for the whole season."
