The Studio
From the first step into Permanent Records, you immerse yourself in a world of premier recording gear and instruments. From iconic Marshall amps to revered Gibson and Guild guitars, cutting-edge Korg keyboards, and the pinnacle of bass equipment from Warwick and SWR - our arsenal rivals that of top-dollar studios.
But it's not just about the brand names; it's about the meticulous attention to detail that goes into every purchase. Each piece of equipment has been handpicked after exhaustive research, ensuring that every note, every sound, is captured with unparalleled clarity and richness.
Take a glance around our studio, and you'll see that we mean business. Every aspect is fine-tuned for maximum efficiency and flexibility. Keyboards seamlessly patched through our advanced patch bay, a dedicated microphone patch bay to eliminate the hassle of rummaging behind racks, and cables neatly organized in categorized drawers. Even within Pro Tools, every customizable feature has been expertly remapped and renamed to align perfectly with our studio setup.
At Permanent Records, we don't just record - we elevate the recording experience to new heights. Witness the fusion of cutting-edge technology and time-honored craftsmanship, where every detail is meticulously crafted to ensure that your sound is nothing short of extraordinary.
