Music Studio

Peace of Eden Recording Studio is situated at the edge of verdant forests on a 5 ha property near Knysna, in the heart of the Garden Route of southern South Africa. Here, we have been part of the small rural community of Rheenendal for 34 years.

The first album we recorded and produced in 1997 was internationally ground-breaking and ever since, our SAMA award-winning producer and engineer, Howard Butcher, has been at the helm of every project.

Howard is acknowledged to have engineered and authored some of the most expansive recordings to have come out of South Africa in recent times. His immersive sound is behind albums for artistes such as Derek Gripper, Steve Newman, Dan Patlansky and many others.

Peace of Eden offers a unique creative environment and relaxing accommodation ideal for recording projects, albums and EPs where you have exclusive use of all our facilities. Our studio is equipped with an array of current and vintage instruments including verti-grand acoustic piano, electric rhodes pianos, Hammond, Lowry and Yamaha organs, valve and solid-state guitar and bass amplifiers, acoustic, electric and midi guitars, electric and acoustic basses, mandolin and ukulele, 6-piece maple Yamaha stage-custom drum kit, congas, talking drum, djembe and percussion. Outboard gear includes vintage tape echo and a variety of analog, digital and software processors. We have an inventory of Neumann, AKG, Shure, Tul, Sennheiser, and Electro-voice microphones. Our recording formats include workstation software systems and analog recorders that use  2" tape, 1" tape, 1/2" tape and 1/4" tape.
