My band had a sound and video recording of our live set at the studio last week and was really really impressed by the quality of the service. We had a few technical issues during setup but the guys ended up extending our session by over two hours, late at night, to accommodate. Just had the unmixed set back and it sounds great already! Full service with mixing was really good value too - can't recommend this place enough!

We recently booked in a filmed and tracked session with Do It Ourselves, and were totally blown away by both the professionalism and humanity we felt throughout the experience - their service is bespoke and hands on with plenty of options given for whatever visual and sonic direction you may be wanting. It's a far cry from more sterile studio environments, we felt genuinely considered by warm human beings who were totally accommodating of our goals and wanted for us to get the best result possible - a win for us was a win for them. Would 100% recommend for any artist or band wanting to showcase what they're about, in an environment that is passionate, caring towards the music, and also sounded awesome.

We had a brilliant experience recording a live set with film. Run by lovely guys who are really passionate and dedicated to the job, making sure things work for the artist and accommodating things around that. Was also a really relaxed and easy going environment, highly recommend!

This is a great studio, really professional set up, high quality practice rooms. Dan the owner is a fantastic engineer too, so if you need great mixes of your music this is the place to go. Easily the best studio in Stockport.
