Deadline Studios is certainly one of Leicestershire's top professional recording studios!

Head Engineer and Producer Adam Ellis has almost 20 years experience in achieving the sound bands dream of in the least time possible - perfect for artists that are looking to record their first few tracks or debut EP.
With the latest Protools and Logic software combine with the top of the line analogue outboard equipment and mics, Adam can capture your music at it best to create fantastic results. Indeed, Sony Studios in London once refunded a client their entire session fee after admitting that their results were not as good as Deadline's! Boasting a range of high-end guitar amps, drums, keyboards and guitars available to clients to help enhance their sound Deadline Studios also include the price of mastering within the price of recording - so no need to pay for separate mastering sessions which is a relief for all musicians!
Package deals are available with printed CDs, with options for photography and promo videos, and session musicians can be sourced if required to get the pro result you dreamed of. Adam's experience and musical ear give him the edge over most engineers and he is able to offer assistance and advice regarding arrangements, playing, singing, harmonies and even songwriting if required. Having worked with a few of Leicester's most promising bands, including The Displacements, Adam offers a free taster session in which bands can record a live song and take it home!
