The Studio

Record in One of the Netherlands’ Most Unique Studio Spaces

Located in a vibrant creative hub in Nijmegen, Galloway Studio combines architectural acoustics, custom audio gear, and a deeply personal aesthetic - all designed to inspire.

Highlights:

 - Control Room: Designed by NAMM Tec Awards nominee Dennis Busch (Brainworx), inspired by Vincent van Haaff (Sonic Ranch), offering acoustic clarity and focus.
 - Custom Monitoring: Sky Audio monitors by Jürgen Lusky provide unmatched stereo imaging and an uncolored reference.
 - Live Room: A chapel-like hall ideal for full band sessions, orchestras, and choirs. Great for live concerts too - recordable in both audio and video.
 - Isolation Booths: Two iso-booths for detailed tracking or layered arrangements.
 - Instruments & Gear: A wide collection of amps, pedals, guitars, synths, and effects.
 - Comfort: Canteen, cozy lounge, and optional home-cooked meals.

Ideal for local and international artists looking for a destination studio in the Netherlands.
