Current Studio
Since the Union redevelopment of 2014, the STAR studio has been situated on the middle floor of the building, next to The Saint's office. The space includes a large studio with four Shure SM7B microphones on boom arms, and the SRM v1 mixer. There is an adjacent control room, with four dbx 286s microphone preamps, and all of STAR's computers. STAR also occupies a cupboard in The Saint's office, which is used to store merch, spare copies of Hearing Aid, starTV equipment, and old studio equipment.
