BlackCove Studios
Located in the beatiful Queen Charlotte Heights on Bowen Island, BlackCove Studios will be a full scale project studio. Situated on a 1.3 acre private lot, the only distraction will be the surrounding nature and brilliant views.
With a medium sized control room, there will be plenty of room for clientele to relax in comfort and listen to great music. The small live room will have a focus on versatility and be designed to accomodate a full size drum kit. The attached iso-booth may be used to house a singer or amplifiers.
The 24 input digital console by Presonus assures that all your recording needs will be met. Teamed the latest DAW software, the recording setup is up to the most modern standards of sound quality. There is an ample selection of gear to meet all of your creative desires.
Amenities such as pubs, cafes, and other shopping destinations around Snug Cove are a mere 5 minute drive (15 minute walk) away. There are many trails and even a public beach nearby.
