When looking for new rehearsal rooms in Manchester, we came across Do It Ourselves just off the M60 in Manchester. Really great space, very well equipped and looks great too. Dan clearly cares about the experience the bands/artists have. Have booked a few times since and will stick with the place. Probably the best we’ve used over many years.

Our band, Redwing, used Do It Ourselves Recording Studio for live performance recording. Dan put together an excellent package for both tracking and filming for us. The Toft Audio desk has beautiful pre-amps, great to hear a warm tone to my drums even before any effects or eq put on them. You're not just getting the space, time and equipment, you're getting Dan's wonderful expertise and understanding of the process. He really makes you at ease / comfortable to just get on with it. Can't recommend enough.

Amazing space, used the recording studio in Stockport and my mind was blown at how resourceful the space is. The equipment, the kitchen. A lot of love and thought has been put into building this space and you can tell. I will definitely be using it again. Price was amazing too!!

Just been to the studio for the first time. So glad I stumbled across this place. Fantastic studio, brilliant filly working equipment, everything you need to get going. Great communications with myself before hand and the instructions for access couldn't of been easier. Can't recommended enough rather than going through the mainstream studios. This is light years apart. I'll be a regular now.
