Frequently asked questions

Here are some answers to common questions about our podcast studios. Something else on your mind? Visit our support hub or reach out via Live Chat.

What type of podcasting equipment do you have?

We offer industry-standard equipment in all our studios — so whether you’re recording a personal piece or a business podcast, you’re assured of quality:

What do I need to bring to my session?

A laptop to record onto OR an SDcard to record onto (essential)
A USB-C cable — if you’re recording to a laptop, you’ll need one to connect to the equipment (optional)
Adapter — if your laptop doesn't have a USB-C port, bring an adaptor too (optional)

If you're using an SDcard to record your podcast, 32GB is a good size.

How much does a podcast studio cost?

Podcast studios are the same price throughout the week. A discounted rate is available for bookings over one-hour long. For the latest prices, check the booking calendar.

When are the podcast studios open?

The studios are open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and are available for hourly and day-long bookings. Podcast whenever you like using our online booking system. Come and go as you please.

Can I stream or record my session?

Not yet but watch this space…

Will any staff be available to help me with my session?

Our studios are self-service, which allows us to keep costs down for you. If you have any problems please use the FAQs, live chat or call us ASAP.

If you have any equipment issues, we can help troubleshoot — the sooner you let us know, the better. We have replacement gear on-site in case of any technical faults.

What if something breaks or I need a spare?

Spares in every location! We carry lots of spares in our sites, just in case you need any further equipment or something has a fault. You'll also find lots of spare cables and mics in our rehearsal studios if needed.

Something missing from the room or you need an item from the Spares cupboard? Hit us up on Live Chat via the website. We will be more than happy to help.

How do I adjust the microphone arm correctly?

It is important to handle the equipment correctly and with care. The microphone acts as a counterweight to help stabilise the Rode PSA1 Studio Arm, which means that any forceful adjustments could cause the microphone to tip over and cause damage.

Only attempt to adjust the arm using the adjustable handles
Hold the arm with both hands when using the handles
Do not attempt to remove the clamp from its original position

Check out the video below for a more in-depth look at the Rode PSA1 Studio Arm.
