Welcome to Wired for Sound Studios! The only studio and rehearsal space, on the East Coast, between Dundee and Edinburgh.
We are a community based studio and rehearsal space, situated in the heart of Kirkcaldy, upstairs in the salubrious Kirkcaldy YMCA. (Hendry Crescent, Valley Gardens)
We have a fully equipped, industry standard recording studio and 2 fully equipped rehearsal rooms. Our large rehearsal room is a fully monitored system and you will not believe how good it sounds. Students/Jobseekers - £7.50 per hour ( 3 hours for £18 )
The studio is open for recording / rehearsal 7 days per week and being a community resource, our rates are very competitive. Rehearsals cost £10 per hour ( 3 hours for £25 ) and we have great deals for full day rehearsals.
Recording costs from £15 per hour. Discounts are available to charities, community groups, schools, students, jobseekers etc... Not to mention that if you are currently, or choose to become a member of the YMCA youth music initiative, you can reap the benefits of our 50% discount!
If you are looking for 1 or 2 day demo sessions, you’ll be hard sought to find the quality of service for such low prices. If need be (timing depending) we can also accommodate longer projects.
For all those budding DJs out there, we also have a DJ room available for hire and a choice of either CDJ - 1000 MK3 decks, or DENON S5000’s with a DN - X1500 mixer. We have 2 DJs on site to provide assistance and workshops when needed.
