The Suite recording studios are a state-of-the-art recording facility, which specialise in video, pro audio and radio.
The BBC opened the studios in 2003 with the aim of providing a high quality of service and education to the pupils of Park Community School and to the general public.
As part of the school's rebuild, The Suite's equipment was upgraded to reflect the ever-changing world of technology.
The Raven
Park Community became the first school in the country to own and use The Raven MTX 2 touch screen mixing console designed by Slate Digital.
This new desk allows our clients and engineers to get hands-on and integrate with their audio projects.
Sontronics Partnership
The Suite are proud to have a partnership with British microphone manufacturers Sontronics, allowing us to offer the very best in high-quality audio capturing, enhancing your band's sound.
Examples of hardware available:
Park Radio and News
The Studio plays host to the school's weekly news broadcast.
Butterfly Broadcast is a news show written, filmed and produced by the pupils of Park Community School with the intention of informing and educating their fellow peers.
The pupil-led radio station grants students the opportunity to showcase their interviewing, presenting and research skills, whilst entertaining the community with the latest tracks in the charts.
