A mic locker worth the drive.
Classic condensers and ribbons, boutique preamps, a Yamaha C7 under a 16-foot ceiling, and a Hammond with its Leslie. Everything here is ready for your session, with engineers who know every piece of it.
The large-diaphragm condenser behind countless records.
Under a 16-foot ceiling in the Piano Room.
With a Leslie 122, in its own corner.
A Royer R-121, a Coles 4038 pair, and an RCA 44B.
VT-737sp, Shelford Channel, CORE, and a handmade Sutera preamp from Italy.
The reverb engineers reach for when the room needs to be bigger.
The pieces people ask about.
Stock photos for now, marked as such. Photos of the Woodshed's own gear are on the way.
Everything in the room.
