Nothing! We will provide all necessary equipment and resources. Of course, if you have a guitar, a pair of drumsticks or some previous music you have worked on, feel free to bring them along!

Beginner students will be allocated to our tutors who focus on beginner to intermediate students. A principal tutor may be allocated to a beginner student depending on scheduling and availability, if necessary. Any new advanced students will be directed to a principal tutor.

Our principal tutors are highly experienced, qualified and teach their instrument full-time. This means they can allocate more time to lesson preparation as they focus on our intermediate to advanced student base. If you are doing your HSC, studying in tertiary education, exam preparation or are already highly experienced and just want to refine your skills, our principal tutors will be here to assist you.

Any extra strings or skins required during a session are additional to the initial recording cost. If organised ahead of time, correct strings for your session can be acquired by the studio at a discounted cost and instruments you are looking to use can be set up and prepared for the session. Drum skins are generally kept in good order but if an artist wishes to use different skins on the drum kit then that cost falls onto the artist.
