ABOUT STUDIOWZ
StudioOwz
StudiOwz is a residential recording studio located in the depths of Pembrokeshire, South West Wales. This converted chapel has been designed and built by owner/engineer Owain Fleetwood Jenkins throughout 2018, and is now open for business.
The control room is based around a vintage CADAC J-Type console and a selection of world class preamps and compressors. StudiOwz has a large live room with high ceilings in the main area of the original chapel along with a tight sounding, non-parallel live room in direct line of sight, making this a very flexible space for tracking a record or filming your band live in the studio.
