No. We’ll guide you through the setup and handle the technical side, so you can focus on the conversation.

You can leave with your raw audio and video files on the day, or choose editing and receive finished, ready-to-publish content.

Can I reschedule my booking?
Yes. If you need to change your session, just let us know in advance and we’ll do our best to accommodate.
Where are you situated?
We are situated close to the main A6 with lots of buses between Derby and Ripley, making us easily accessible – and Belper has its own train station too, making access from Nottinhgam / Derby / Duffield / Whatstandwell / Matlock and beyond a doddle.
Is parking available nearby?
Yes. Free parking is available at Coppice Car Park, Market Place, a short walk from the studio, as well as free on-street parking nearby.
What about disabled access?
The studio space is upstairs, and due to the age of the historic building, there aren't any lift facilities, so anyone using the studio will need to be comfortable using stairs.
