Courtyard is a residential studio out in the wilds of Oxfordshire. It's a nice spot; George Orwell is buried just round the corner, there are some nice pubs and it's been home to records by Radiohead, Supergrass and Stereophonics to name a few.
Its geared up for both analogue and digital recording. There's a nice Neve desk, a 24 track tape machine, Protools 10HD, a bunch of outboard and mics (vintage and new) and an EMT plate reverb. The recording rooms won't fit an orchestra but are big enough to track a band all together. It's comfortable and it's got a real good vibe.
