The Wood Room

One of the most sonically superlative recording spaces ever built, the Wood Room is famed for its warm, rich acoustic, and big enough to hold a large ensemble. It’s often combined with the Big Room, but can also be booked on its own.

The Wood Room houses a mobile recording rig based on a 24-channel Solid State Logic AWS 924 console with a further 16 channels of Neve 33114 Preamplifiers. Although it’s usually kept in the room, the rig can be moved to the isolation booth if preferred.

The Wood Room also contains a Bosendorfer 170CS Grand Piano, a 32-in Pro Tools | Ultimate HDX rig, a 24-channel digital foldback system, an ever-expanding array of instruments and outboard, and six acoustic screens – with and without windows.

“It’s always a pleasure to work at Real World. It has managed to embrace modern technology while still maintaining a fantastic, creative, old school working environment. I can’t think of any other studio that has done this so successfully.”

Enda Walsh, Engineer to Van Morrison

“Real World! What an amazing studio.”
