- MAGNET Rehearsal studios were established as an antidote to
the run down, dirty, smelly, and sometimes dangerous places that
call themselves rehearsal rooms.
- The practice rooms have been purpose built and were designed
by musicians for use by musicians.
- There are 4 good sized rehearsal rooms. Practice Rooms 1-3
20ft X 20ft and room 4 17ft X 14ft. Each one has been treated
to absorb unwanted frequencies so that you can hear actually what
you are playing.

- MAGNET prides itself on maintaining a creative environment for
the all types and standards of musician. All you need to do is
bring your instrument and leave the rest to us. Although you can
do the playing!!!
- Service is helpful and friendly. MAGNET is open almost 24/7
dependant upon demand.
- The rehearsal rooms have been tastefully decorated and carpeted.
Coloured lighting is available so you can create your own mood.
Cooling fans have been installed for comfort and the rooms are
cleaned every single day. Even the toilets are spotless!!
- Each room has a 6 input 300 watt Fender mixer amp suitable for
vocals. (Due to be upgraded to 1.2 kw in late 2007) We only use
shure SM58 Mics.
- Each room has been insulated and soundproofed to a level that
means you are not disturbed other noise.
- Standard backline equipment can be hired separately and includes
Marshall/Laney valve guitar heads and 4x12 cabs and Trace Elliott/Peavey
Bass amps although Ampeg or Mesa Boogie maybe available at a higher
premium. We also have our own custom built high gain MAGNETO guitar
amp available for hire or to buy.
- We are now offering a recording service. We have a 16 track
Boss BR116 recorder. We can record anything from a 2 track
live recording of your rehearsal to full 16 track recording. Sem
Caputo is an engineer trained at Confetti Studios with experience
in both live and studio arenas. Give us a call and discuss your
requirements. This recoding device is also available for
hire inside or outside the studio.

- We take your safety very seriously at Magnet. Each room has its own circuit protected ring
main. All our equipment is PAT tested and maintained to a very
high standard. We have public liability insurance.
- Fire alarms with strobe light and extinguishers have also been
installed in each room.
- Locked storage units are available to hire. The premises are
protected by video surveillance and regularly maintained alarm
system linked to a remote security station.
- A chill out area is provided for your comfort and refreshments
are available from the office or from our coffee/tea machine.
In short ... MAGNET IS THE SAFEST, THE BEST AND MOST
SECURE PLACE TO REHEARSE OR RECORD. LEAVING YOU TO CONCENTRATE ON THE MUSIC
