We're moving,
rebuilding &
rebranding

a new address – a new studio – a new name
a synthesizer sanctuary for music producers and synth lovers

02our story

From Echo Vane STUDIO to one monastery road studio

Echo Vane Studio grew out of a spare room, a borrowed synth and far too many patch cables. The collection grew, the sessions got longer, and the room stopped being enough.

So we are building our own new studio in an old cattle barn: brick walls, high beams, a quiet street. Our new name is simply the address we work at. The monastic feeling is something we are creating around it. The robins were there all along.

The arch in our mark refers to the monastery atmosphere we are building around the studio. The robin is the bird we see outside the window. Together they say what this place is: a calm sanctuary for focus, and a playground for tactile sound.

Three engineers for one room

Small team, short lines. Whoever you book with is the person you meet at the door, and the one who knows where every cable goes.

    Jeroen

    owner & studio engineer

    Built the room from the ground up and never quite stopped. Jeroen runs most sessions, keeps the bays labelled, and makes sure every take leaves the room as a tidy set of stems. The one who answers your email.

    Milan

    Electronic music engineer | percussion

    Milan works on electronic productions, from club tracks to long-form ambient, and brings a percussionist sense of timing and groove to the room. If a sequence needs to breathe instead of loop, he is the one who finds it.

    Laurent

    Metal music engineer | guitar & vocals

    Laurent records guitars and vocals, heavy or clean, and knows how to get a DI chain and a stack to sit together. He handles the loud end of the studio and keeps the low mids honest.

06Sessions & services

Four ways into the room

Every booking is one session of four or five hours, starting with a short conversation about what you want to make and which machines you need. No packages forced on you.

Who the room is for

  • Bedroom producers
  • Small artists & duos
  • Small groups
  • Sound designers & composers
  • Synth enthusiasts
  • 01

    Four-hour synth session

    The standard block: four hours in the room with the full collection, patched and warmed up before you arrive. Bring a laptop, a few ideas or nothing at all. Made for bedroom producers, duos and sound designers.

    4 hours · engineer on call · all stems included

  • 02

    Five-hour synth session

    One extra hour for deeper patching: build a track from scratch, sample a whole rack or print several passes of the same sequence. Also the favourite of small groups who share the room.

    5 hours · engineer on call · all stems included

  • 03

    Duo & small group session

    Share the room with a partner, a bandmate or a small group. We split the time between setups so everyone gets hands on the machines, and keep a patch log so you can pick up where you left off.

    4 or 5 hours · 2 to 4 people · engineer on call · all tracks included

  • 04

    Sound design & sampling session

    For sound designers and composers who need raw material: drones, one-shots, loops and textures printed from hardware, with patch notes so you can recreate them later.

    4 or 5 hours · engineer on call · all stems included · WAV stems and MIDI

We only host synthesizer sessions. Mixing, mastering and full band recordings are not part of the offer right now. We enjoy songwriting, producing and experimenting with sound design.

What you take home

Every session is recorded. You leave with the audio and the notes, so nothing you made is left behind.

WAV stems, 24-bit, one file per part

MIDI files of every played or sequenced part
