Winchester
Audio Barn

The three-year studio build combines a large open live room with isolated recording booths, a dedicated control room and an extensive collection of modern and vintage equipment. The air conditioning had to manage these very different spaces without fan noise, draughts or vibration reaching the microphones.

We designed a fully ducted system around the building and its specialist acoustic treatment. Acoustically lined ductwork and dissipation boxes reduce air velocity and noise, while vibration-isolated mounts prevent mechanical energy entering the recording spaces. The completed system operates at NR15 and lower.
