What You Leave With
You are not just renting a room. Every session ends with broadcast-quality files in your hands, no editing bay required. Here is exactly what you take home.
01
Every microphone recorded on its own track, plus a full mixdown. Broadcast-grade sound, ready for editing or straight to publish.
02
Multi-camera 4K footage from every angle, professionally lit. Raw files delivered so you can cut long form and clips your way.
03
Optional vertical cuts for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts, edited and captioned. Add our editing team and leave with content already sliced for social.
04
Everything transferred before you leave, or sent straight to your drive. No waiting, no chasing. Walk in with an idea, walk out with the episode.
No editing experience needed. We handle the tech, you handle the conversation.

Who You Are Booking With
We started Outset in 2018 because we wanted a studio we would actually want to record in. Ten thousand sessions later, that is still the whole idea: turn up, feel looked after, leave with something you are proud of.

We meet you at the studio and walk you through everything before you start: microphone levels, headphone monitoring, camera framing, and the recording software. Most clients are rolling within ten minutes. You don't set anything up yourself.
Nothing technical. Just yourself and your guests. We provide broadcast microphones, headphones for every seat, and 4K cameras for video sessions. Raw files are included at the end of every session.
Shoreditch (420 sqft) suits solo and small panel shows. London Bridge Studio A (750 sqft) is the flagship for larger productions, Studio B (500 sqft) for focused sessions. Manchester (800 sqft) is our largest. Not sure? Check availability and we'll advise. Check availability →
One hour, no maximum. For recurring weekly or fortnightly sessions we can hold a regular slot. Get in touch to discuss a series rate.
Weekend and early morning slots book fastest. If you need something specific, it's worth checking live availability now. Check availability →
Yes. A sound engineer is £24/hr on top of the studio rate. A videographer is available on request. Both can be added at booking or after, just let us know before the session starts.
Cancel or reschedule up to 7 days before at no charge. Within 7 days, our standard policy applies. Flexible rescheduling cover can be added for £21 per session at booking.
We're on-site during every session. If there's a technical issue with equipment, connection, or software, we deal with it immediately. You won't be left to figure it out alone.
