Facilities
Studio A
Studio A is built around one of the most significant analogue synthesiser collections in Southeast Asia. The Sequential Prophet-10, Roland JUNO-60, Moog Sub 37, Moog Matriarch Semi Modular, and a Korg MS-20 Original — instruments that defined entire genres of music — are here, in hardware, ready to play. Alongside the TR-8S, TR-1000 Rhythm Creator, and the CXM 1978 Automatone, Studio A gives you a level of sonic character no plugin library can replicate.
Beyond synthesis, the room handles live guitar, bass, and vocal recording through a dedicated iso booth. Whether you are building a full electronic production from scratch, layering live elements into an existing track, or chasing a sound you have only ever heard on a record — Studio A is equipped to go there.
Built to Chukku's standard

Important Information
Studio Booking Guidelines
1. Advance Booking and Payment
All sessions must be booked in advance via our booking form or WhatsApp. Please make an appointment before coming over — our team will respond promptly to confirm availability.
Please note: Bookings are NOT confirmed until full payment is received. Full payment is due at least 24 hours before your session. Unpaid slots will be released. Payment details will be provided once availability is confirmed.
2. Punctuality
Please arrive on time; bookings are valid only for the allocated slot. Over-run sessions will incur additional charges.
3. Session Preparation
To avoid setup delays, kindly provide a detailed list of your planned activities in the studio, so that we can adequately prepare the session accordingly. For sessions with Chukku-directed oversight, please send necessary files prior to the session to ensure an efficient set-up and a smooth workflow.
4. Studio Etiquette
Aya Studios is a DRUG-FREE studio. No drugs are allowed on the premises. No smoking, eating, or drinking inside any Studio or DJ Room. Closed water bottles are permitted but must be kept away from equipment. Please use designated areas for smoking and dining. Always consult our team before moving any equipment or furniture.
5. Equipment Use and Responsibility
Please do not unplug cables, change routing, reconfigure set-ups, or move equipment or furniture without assistance from our team. If any adjustments are required, kindly inform us and we will assist you. If you encounter any technical issues, please inform our team immediately.
You are fully responsible for any damage caused to studio equipment during your session. Each booking includes only the equipment listed on our website. If you require additional instruments, microphones, or special setup, please inform us in advance. Additional charges may apply.
Recording / Production Studios: You may choose to use our studio computer or bring your own. If using our studio computer, all files must be backed up and removed by the end of your session. We do not provide file storage, and all files are deleted immediately after sessions. For Studio A, B and Master Suite: If you plan to use your own computer, please download and install the UAD software (Software Installer and Console app) before your session. Set-up during session time will reduce your usable studio time.
If you book a room without session direction, please ensure the room is left tidy and returned to its original setup.
6. Cancellations and Rebooking
If you are unable to attend your session, please inform us at least 24 hours in advance. Sessions may be rescheduled within three months, subject to availability. All payments are non-refundable.
7. Unforeseen Circumstances
In the event of a power outage or other unforeseen circumstances beyond our control, the remaining session time may be rescheduled. No refunds will be issued.
These guidelines ensure a smooth and productive studio experience for everyone.
