There are various other rooms for isolating amplifiers or performers.

The control room features a custom 96-channel, 192 input, Neve VSP film scoring console, which was originally built for and installed in Paramount Pictures, Scoring Stage M. The original, bespoke Neve 48-channel cue mixer is also installed.
