About

Spitfire Audio, the world-renowned creator of high-quality sample libraries for composers and music makers proudly presents the release of their first effects plug-in, AIR Studios Reverb, in collaboration with London’s iconic AIR Studios.

Built in 1884 by Alfred Waterhouse, architect of the Natural History Museum, Lyndhurst Hall is now one of the world’s largest recording rooms. The live area accommodates a full symphony orchestra and choir simultaneously, with an inspiring acoustic that musicians love.

Studio 1 is a perfect recording space for bands and small orchestral groups. The airy, naturally-lit space of the live room – a former lecture hall – has a versatile acoustic thanks to its moving wall.

The acoustic design and 7.1.4 Dolby Atmos monitoring in Studio 2 make it one of the best mix rooms in the world. Whether using the classic SSL analogue console with a wide range of vintage outboard or Pro Tools mixing, the spacious control room provides the ideal creative environment.

Our largest mix room, Studio 3 is a score mixing room for film, TV and games and Dolby Atmos Music certified for Apple Spatial Audio master mixes.

Our writing rooms are used by composers, producers and musicians who are an important part of our creative community. We provide technical support and 24-hour access.

A five strong technical department supports the studios and mastering facilities. At least one member of this team is on-site whenever any of the studios are operating. AIR Studios continually aims for the highest standards of technical excellence.

Praised as the best tasting cafe in the industry, our fully licensed bar and food service will cater to your every need.
