What dry hire is for
You bring your laptop with projects and licences. We provide the treated room, monitoring, interface, microphones, stands, headphones, and cabling. You run the session in your DAW without paying for an engineer you do not need.
It suits producers finishing arrangements, podcasters recording dialogue, vocalists punching lines, and songwriters capturing demos with a collaborator at the keyboard. When you want someone at the desk, book an engineer session instead.
What is included
Every booking includes mains monitoring, headphone distribution, multi-channel conversion, microphones for voice and instruments, stands, DI boxes, and cabling. Bring your machine; the patch layout stays consistent between visits.
Overnight slots are available when the calendar allows, which helps shift workers and weekend sessions that do not fit a nine-to-five schedule.
Rates and booking
Dry hire starts at £15/hr with a two-hour minimum. Book 4 hours for £50 or 8 hours for £80. Engineer sessions are £30/hr.
Message on WhatsApp with your session type, duration, and dates. We confirm Evans House access, parking, and cancellation terms in writing before you travel.
On the day
Confirmation messages include unit access details so first visits are straightforward. Free parking on site means you load in without feeding meters while the clock runs.
When you finish, you leave with exports in the format agreed at booking (usually WAV). If gain was wrong at home, we would rather fix it in the room than discover clipping after you have driven back.
