Abbey End Studios

Radio Abbey has been broadcasting for over 15 years and in 2023 we had a unique opportunity to provide the community with broadcast quality recording studios, offering young people, local business and audio enthusiasts a unique recording facility in the heart of Kenilworth.

The Esmono Sound Booth itself has an amazing history and previously was housed at Ladbooke Studios in London, where it was host to many celebrities including Bill Nighy, Indira Varma and  Andy Serkis, and produced Terry Pratchett’s Discworld in Audio, Doctor Who audio drama and much much, more. 

Have you considered starting a podcast for your company or group but don’t know where to start? 

The studio is set up so that you can record your own podcast even if you have never recorded a podcast before. We can help set you up, get you started and we even offer post production and podcast hosting services with our partners Listening Shelf Audio and Ladbrooke Audio. 

We also now have access to facilities for on-site recordings, this means we can offer you support at your event or location and record interviews for your content.

The studio is also set up for simple voice over production, from recording your own explainer video or advert for your website or social media platforms. Again with our partners we can offer a high level of production or something simple that you can create yourselves. 

Audiobook Recording 

Are you an author who would like to get your book published in Audio? Do you want to narrate yourself?  The studio can be used for audiobook recording and our partners are well versed in the production and publication of audiobooks and can help you on your journey. 

Audio Drama 

The Studio has 5 mics in total and is suitable for multicast projects and audio drama. 

Music Recording

The studio can also be used for light music production, from creating your own soundtrack to recording vocals and guitars. This is something we will be working on with the Youth Club.
