The DJ room at The EQ Lab: two Pioneer CDJs, a DJM-V10 mixer, monitor speakers and the production desk under blue hexagon lights

Upstairs

The DJ room

Two Pioneer CDJ-3000s and a DJM-V10. The V10 is a six channel club mixer you will not find in another practice room round here, with a 75″ 4K visuals screen behind the booth so anything you film already looks the part.

There is room to sit down, so people book it in twos and threes and treat it as a session rather than an appointment.

Downstairs

The recording studio

A separate room for vocals, production and mixing. Book it with an engineer, or on your own if you know your way around a session.

Alongside

The Chill Zone

Somewhere to sit, socialise, play PS5 and talk to a tutor. Part of the youth offer rather than an afterthought.
