Studio

Built in spring 2009, Propeller Mastering´s new studio was designed by Munro Acoustics. Munro´s 25 year track record of building some of the finest rooms in the world was paramount to us when choosing a designer to work with. The fully floating room and custom acoustic treatment was built with one thing in mind, sonic accuracy.
